"Safety" and "Accident" statistics are often misleading.

This afternoon I was driving in South Humberside. On the A614 is a sign urging motorcyclists to take extra care. The stats on the sign said 4 motorcyclists had been killed on the road in the last 4 years.

Cynical old me now knows that the NHS is more dangerous than riding a motorcycle.
