Question What's more important Public or Flight Safety?

An interesting and thought provoking comment made on the 'Night Auto video' thread was that the use of single engine helicopters in the US by Police Authorities led to better Public Safety as more, financially efficient, helicopters can be used. Also, that provides better employment prospects for new starters.

The case of Flight Safety would argue that Twins should be used to prevent incidents like the 'Night Auto' happening in the first place, but is more expensive and would lead to less helicopters.

What do you think?
