What mighty Monty said.









A lot depends on whether people actually drive slow enough and whether they pay enough attention to their surroundings, at least concerning the likelihood of accidents. Although there may be a point in less regulation = fewer accidents if one looks at this map:

Then again a lot of the countries with problems in that sector have worse problems in other areas. For further discussion I suggest a topic on the subject.
