The main results show that
* The number of people killed in road accidents fell by 1 per cent from 3,201 in 2005 to 3,172 in 2006. 31,845 people were killed or seriously injured in 2006, 1 per cent fewer than in 2005. There were 258,404 road casualties in Great Britain in 2006, 5 per cent less than in 2005.
* There were 189,161 road accidents involving personal injury in 2006, 5 per cent fewer than in 2005. Of these, 27,872 accidents involved death or serious injury, less than 1 per cent fewer than in 2005 (27,942).
* The number of deaths among car users in 2006 was 1,612, 4 per cent less than in the previous year. The number seriously injured fell by 2 per cent to 12,642. Total casualties among car users were 171,000, 4 per cent lower than 2005. Provisional traffic estimates indicate a 1 per cent rise in car and taxi traffic over the period.
* Child casualties fell by 9 per cent. The number of children killed or seriously injured in 2006 was 3,294 (down 5 per cent on 2005). Of those, 2,025 were pedestrians, 5 per cent down on 2005. 169 children died on the roads, 20 per cent more than in 2005, this was about the same level as 2004 (166) which at that time was the lowest ever recorded figure.
I think that I heard that one other child had been abducted in portugal in the last ten years although I stand to be corrected.
I think the above ^^^^^clearly shows that "a simple drive in a car" exposes your children to far more danger.
Added to that are that these figures happen every year.
ignorant, naive, bad mother or just plain stupid... you fill in the blanks.
You also stated that the room was unlocked. Well I understand that it was locked, the macanns said it was locked, the portugese police say it was locked… even joe90 said it was locked
The british police have never suggested that it was anything but locked but you have written that it was. I suspect that you have no idea if it was locked or not but it wouldn’t suit your purpose if it was.
Three things you stated in your post and three things you got wrong. The last being that you suggest that people would be happy to leave their kids like the macanns did.
You cant have been talking to me because I had already stated that I have not and would not have done so.
The person you aimed it at had also stated the same and although I cannot speak for her/him, I think its safe to say you got that wrong too..
Ps
I thought you wanted your say but were not going to argue..
Pps
i would have let you flap your lips because everyone can see that it more important for you to condemm rather than think about what you say.
your smugness and need to be right over such a sad subject sickens me.
Ever wish that you didn’t write WAITING..
enough from me. i'll let ignorant people flap their lips and feel really good about themselves.[/b]
