Only 333 people died?Only? Easily fixed these three major causes but that would require certain people to do their job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overt2016 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 What is there to rejoice about that? It just proves that more needs to be done to prevent this needless loss of lives. ' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebell Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 A triumph for the police and their massive overtime payments for phone-staring. Deaths down 15% = traffic down 15%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I read that too, it seem to me that "This Year" doesn't include 24th to 31st Dec 21. 427 deaths was what I found on google that's an average of 61 a day !
