Shadow Road Safety Minister Richard Burden said: “This report should be a wake up call for the Government on road safety. Ministers axed Labour’s ambitious targets to cut the number of deaths and serious injuries on our roads. Now we know that a third of a million people will be killed or seriously injured between now and 2030 if the Government continues on their current course. It’s unacceptable. We need a new vision for road safety, which will build on international best practice and ensure our streets are safe, healthy and sustainable places to be. This report shows us what the cost of complacency will be.”
