‘Do your job’: Longtime friend of pothole victim’s pointed message to the state government

A longtime friend of a 71-year-old motorcyclist who was killed after hitting a pothole on the Western Highway on Sunday, has issued a pointed message to the state government.

Barrie AKA ‘Bro Trubie’, had known the late Peter ‘Tiki’ Mason since they were 14 years old, and opened up about their friendship and his sadness following his death.

“It’s entirely preventable,” Barrie told Jacqui Felgate on 3AW Drive.
