Vehicles should be banned from driving on beaches. Change my mind.

There are very few beaches you can go to where vehicles are also allowed. Your interests are not exclusively reign to all of them over other people's interests. You literally have hundreds of other options, most of them better. Learn to accept other people and the things they enjoy and you need but share just a bit with them is all. if you can't tolerate others, just don't go there. They're tolerating you and your kids without complaint.

The Australian coastline is not yours and not everyone is you.

I'd also advise that if you're going to one of the nation's most iconic 4×4 locations that is 95% only accessible by 4×4s, don't be upset if you see 4×4s there and suddenly have to parent. That's entirely your decision, your situation, your issue. I don't go to Perisher and get upset there's skiiers hooning down.
