I do understand what you're saying Peter, but sadly, your average person (not just Australian) doesn't really contemplate what they're doing. You might, but they don't. That's the difference between *you* and them, and why you haven't gotten hurt, and they do.
I'm a poor swimmer, so If I was going out on a boat, I'd be making sure to put a life jacket on. That's common sense. I know I don't need the law to tell me to do it, at least in my circumstances, but I'm sure there's plenty of others who are weak swimmers who would benefit as well, but don't use commonsense.
