A Department for Transport report has found that, in 2007, exceeding the speed limit was a factor in 14 per cent of deaths, up from 12 per cent in 2005.
You may be forgiven for having overlooked this piece of information as it appears to be buried by the Labour government and it's fellow trough users.
The stat means that whatever impact the much admired speed camera may have had it's effect is now declining. This is despite Labour quietly changing the law so that camera's do not have to be placed near accident black spots.
It also means that 86% of accidents are NOT caused by breaking the speed limit.
It also means that all the effort put into creating the vast network of speed camera's was either based on a misunderstanding or it is just another way of raising tax.
