The £750k was the cost 9 years ago, so no doubt it will be £1m now. That figure was given to me by the President of the ILE, (Institute of Lighting Engineers), which is the professional body who design our lighting for roadways. Their interest is of course that lit roadways have less accidents than similar unlit roadways. And for us on 2 wheels they are of course much easier to navigate at speed at night.
TWPD, not sure why you are getting upset with me when all I am stating is what those who want to curb speeding would say about the cost of road death.
In the interest of diplomacy I will refrain from making comment about smoking.
