It started after a mate commented on the number of guitars Paul had lying around and asked what he was going to do with them.

## Working towards safer roads 

We are working towards our vision of zero deaths and serious injuries on Tasmanian roads. The only way that we can get there is by working together. We can no longer accept that people will die or be seriously injured using our roads.
