This report is enlightening but unsurprising to many ex transport people like myself. One thing I would like to add re the "positive effects of COVID-19" on the country is the huge decrease, since the lockdown in March, in monthly fatalities and serious injuries (due to vehicle accidents, veh-veh and ped related accidents) - a massive reduction! This data is normally published by the Dept of Transport and, if one analyses and compares previous years of accident data in the DOT's published ref manuals, the huge improvement to life preservation and well being on public roads is damning TBF. Add in the huge saving impact to British wildlife on public roads during this period and it becomes clear that COVID-19 has exposed some home truths to the point where I've discovered that certain radio stations and media agencies don't wanna debate it for some reason!! I wonder why?
