RTA Examples 3rd party failed to stop at T-junction, but…defensive driving by other driver?? Truck making a left turn, while being overtaken, by a police vehicle! Rollover, tyre initiated? Saloon car at very high speed, on wrong side of road went under trailer making left turn- 3 dead Yet another rollover
Two heavy loads fell off their trailers, could have been fatalities Rollover at high speed, one dead
Road Safety is improving-but challenge is to maintain and improve upon current performance; example: Two head on side – swipes with Heavy Vehicles 6 - 10 Cms further left—and two other fatalities!?? THE END CSM/15 30 Sept,2003
