...the vast majority of crashes causing injury do NOT occur on minor rural roads running through the country.
Massive 'calming' scheme along a mile of 30 near here.

Mini-roundabouts on four junctions, speed 'platforms' and bumps, mixed cycle path and footpath.

At the public exhibition there was a massive map identifying all of the injury accidents . To be fair, there were about 15 involving cyclists.

Usually where a driver was crossing the footpath and entering the road.

No-one there wanted to discuss it ...
Even bland can be a type of character :wave:

Depressing isn't it?
