Australians think they’re pretty safe behind the wheel. Turns out they’re not. A survey of driving habits has uncovered some worrying trends.

Research released by

manufacturer Nextbase shows more than half of Aussie motorists believe they don’t have bad driving habits, despite many admitting to speeding, road rage and using their phone while driving.Of more than 2000 people surveyed, almost one in four admitted to speeding on public roads. More than one in three said they slowed down when being tailgated, with 13 per cent braking suddenly when annoyed by trailing drivers.

Nextbase claims one in four drivers responding to its survey have a dashcam in their primary vehicle, and that 45 per cent of drivers say dashcams should be standard in new cars.Richard Browning, managing director of Nextbase, said “you should always drive as if you’re being filmed”, and that “26 per cent of Australians say that they would change their driving behaviour when they know a dashcam is recording them”.

Inside Australia’s most exclusive gymAn Aussie gym is so exclusive it’s only offered to 50 members at one time — and they’re willing to fork out the big bucks just to be a part of it.
