You may be in interested to note that the Eurorap 2009 survey results are now available. You can read all about the safety of Britain’s roads.

This should mean that the government know where they need to improve safety measures – I wonder if they do?
Here’s an excerpt for you:
“Single-carriageway A-roads are rated Britain’s most dangerous and 58 per cent of A-roads and 25 per cent of motorways fail to rate as safe, according to the latest survey by the Road Safety Foundation, which has tracked and classified the risk-level of roads for the last nine years.”
