thats Without the camera's going out towards the airport, about 9 at last count,

You will find that there is always a reason chap,
here's sommat i found interesting on the A45
I used to frequent Birmingham a lot back in the late 90's early 20's and traffic was bad during rush hour back then so I can only imagine how bad it is now what it more cars on the roads etc, that single statistic as only increases year on year.
During 2016 alone there were...
Casualties
• Total casualties: 141
• Killed and Seriously Injured: 18 (13% of all casualties, down 0.4% when compared to 2015 figure of 20 of 152)
o Killed: 0 (0% of all casualties, down by 3%)
o Seriously injured: 18 (13% of all casualties, down by 2%)
• Slights: 123 (87% of all casualties
0 deaths, I bet that's due to the road being a slow one due to the amount traffic, but the serious injuries was 18.
54 KSI during 2014 - 2016 (Killed or Serious injury)
