    I went on to a bit of DfT delving and found the
    KSI and injury stats for the small town of Fareham; nearly 10 people
    injured *every day* on those roads alone.

    Some mistake?

    That would be 3650 per year, and, given that the population of Fareham is around
    is under 1000th of te UK population, it would imply that over 4 million people
    are injured on the roads each year.

    Seems a _little_ excessive!

    It is. I meant to type *week* not day. Still excessive even withoutmy
    typos,IMO.

    Yes, it is.

    But until the various authorities start to treat injuring someone with a vehicle
    (motor or otherwise) as if it actually matters, I can't see there being any
    _major_ improvement.
