We accept the daily toll of road deaths and injuries as the price we pay to be able to drive everywhere, but it doesn’t have to be this way.

    How about starting with proper driving lessons and tests and not letting children drive 1+ ton death machines?

      Also regular tests for people who have been driving to ensure they understand the changes in driving laws and to reinforce safety guidance.

        I haven’t had to take a driving test in over 20 years. Only once I had to take a multiple choice test on the meaning of various signs and you get three chances to pass it. It’s absolutely absurd that they allow people to get their license at 16 and rarely have to retake a driving test.
