Road Safety: Motion.
I suggest a new target of an absolute maximum of 200 deaths per year. I hate to say we will allow 200 deaths but let us make it a maximum. It should be much lower because, if the 40% reduction over the last three months is extended over the whole year, we should already have an annual total of less than 250 deaths compared with the 400 or so that until the introduction of penalty points seemed such an immovable barrier.
