They named him on TV tonight and showed his face. I'm not prepared to put his name on here.
Can you tell us what channel it was on so we can google it ourselves?

Yeah chubby little bugger isn't he. I was looking at Wombat's number plate and by all accounts he is a ****ROACH.

Melbourne is a nightmare to drive in at any time of the day and night. It's very easy to get confused, but going the wrong way would have been fairly obvious I would have thought. I had my own experiences in that city in the course of finding the specific docks to meet a load. It really is hard work for anyone not used to such bad traffic management with tolls. It's just crap, and although I don't blindly follow the GPS I do use it as a guide. I hate cities at the best of times, but Melbourne is a nightmare.

I think Victoria and in particular Melbourne is a lot easier to navigate than Sydney and I am a NSWales person too.

I'd give you that Ma, but all the eastern seaboard cities are nightmares with tollways. If the revenue from the tolls was invested in the road infrastructure I wouldn't be so reluctant to part with tolls. It's a croc and an insult to the residents and tax payers of those states. Where do the tolls go? Considering they're privatised collected by private enterprise, where does all that revenue go?
I wasn't born in 1941, I'm only 39
