A 7% rise. Despite 20 mph limits being rolled out in many councils. Time for ten year testing and more cameras again

You say as if those roads are where the majority of injuries occurred. How many deaths/ injuries where on roads with the 20 mph limit?

No idea. But that was not my intent. I would expect that 20mph would yield a decrease on the overall stats however
