Letâs start with some salutary stories and then consider how 2021 is unfolding relative to our
a priori expectations.
The first tale is not a happy one. A colleague who works with me, Gary Walsh, was driving through the rain on his daily commute from Wollongong the other day. As he was traversing the s-bends outside the Gong, his car hit some residual oil on the road which, combined with the torrential rain, sent him aquaplaning across the freeway.
Unfortunately the vehicle careened into a concrete pylon, which then flipped it on to its side, following which it spun back on to the freeway. Thankfully all the airbags burst into action and Gary, a robust former first-grade rugby league player, was relatively unscathed. But he was trapped inside the vehicle, bleeding and unable to open his door.
