> "I compare it to Covid," says Harold Scruby, the chairman of the Pedestrian Council of Australia. "It starts here and if they don't put a stop to it…" he trails off as he contemplates the apparently inexorable spread of teenagers on illegal fatbikes.

Most modern news writing needs more flourish such as this.

Would have been a better flourish if Harold used Herpes as the comparison rather than Covid.

Harold Scruby and his "Pedestrian Council of Australia" is one man and a fax machine who's been blaming victims for decades. Any news media who quotes him without pointing this out loses all authority.

this makes it even better. haha.
