    Correct! /named after James Stobie that came up with a design of electric/telephone pole in South Australia. Consisting of a concrete centre part with steel I beams either side.In a part of this country with few large and suitable trees,it was a great engineering answer to a real problem. Problem being..they could jump out in front of you,some late nights.

    Thanks Mate! this must have peaked your interest. Although nearly the smallest state by population,we have punched above our weight for a long time.The Smith Bros. with first flight from England to Aust.1919. Adelaide boys.The Vickers Vimy bomber is preserved at Adelaide Airport.Google it! Perhaps with contemporary whims I will note that SA was the very first place to endorse Suffragette (can't think of the word) ability to vote!

    And to me what holds true,,is,learn your motor vehicle and it's traits. How good are you/how does my vehicle handle. Learn it well before you need to stand on the brakes or wrench the wheel. It used to be called ..driving. Rant nearly done...when will the powers that be force a more structured and hard lesson driving education than just a few hours behind the wheel?
