Well no actualy... :?

Whilst having a discussion on the CSCP we were talking about the fact that they had not reduced deaths in the area at all. The chose to wrap up the figures as KSIs instead. This got me thinking so I did a bit of surfing and found this little gem from earlier in the year...

Bearing in mind that the SCPS are claiming reductions in spite of the fatality rates not combing down I found it ironic that a government minister manages to extrapolate the KSI figures into Ks. Under these circumstances he could not say "cameras save lives"

A bit of a difference don't you think

Extending the argument we can actually have an increase in fatalities but so long as the injured go down they are doing well.... :evil:
