The witnesses will know where I am going with this in that they know I have an opinion on where we place the blame for collisions that involve particularly vulnerable road users. Even though we have gone backwards in the past couple of years, since 2006 we have made improvements with regard to the number of deaths on the roads. We have not seen improvements with pedestrians, however. There has been no improvement at all for pedestrians.

Excuse me, there is a reduction in pedestrians. It is with cyclists that there is no change at all. Our progress is not uniform. We are not doing as well on vulnerable road users.
