the quest for safety
"Richard" wrote in message
... Well, it seems to be working! snip While I agree with much of what you say, the risk of dying due to cars is more important to me as I can choose not to smoke, I can choose to live a healthy life, but because of the way our towns are built, I can't choose to reduce the risk of me being killed by a speeding vehicle. It would be a "badly driven vehicle" rather than a speeding vehicle. Speed as a single factor doesn't kill. The others are natural causes, or causes which we control personally. And your 80% likelihood that the pedestrian is solely at fault is CR*P chucked out by road lobbies trying to justify driving irresponsibly. IIRC it was a survey by West Midlands Police that found in nearly 70% of accidents it was the pedestrians fault. I don't consider the police "road lobbies".
