Heard it on the BBC South news this morning, its great to hear less lives have been lost and no doubt the police actions have had a help in reducing the figures, but I also feel the poor weather we had last summer had something to do with it, I for one covered a lot less miles than I wanted to. The summer of 2003 was a lot better and probably had something to do with the increase in accidents due to increased mileages covered.
I'm sure there is a average figure over a longer period of time and it would be good to know what the overall trend is rather than singular blips on the chart.
