actually I've been reading the paper, its quite interesting, I'm not
sure if they mean skateboarders hitting cars, skateboarders hitting
pedestrians or both? Aborigines are also over represented, along with
drunks.
Its interesting that 75% of fatalities put the cause of the accident
as the pedestrians actions, not the driver. One of the few non drivers
I have known walked under a bus while drunk, that should annoy Dave.

So if you see a drunken aboriginal skateboarder, watch out!
