Does Road Safety tamper with its statistics ?
After the bogus voters, bogus bills, bogus promises, bogus friends, pretenses, bogus reversals of the deferred retroactive drop increase and bogus lasagna – the list goes on and on – will have to- does he now also count with false deaths ?
After the bogus voters, bogus bills, bogus promises, bogus friends, pretenses, bogus reversals of the deferred retroactive drop increase and bogus lasagna – the list goes on and on – will have to- does he now also count with false deaths ?
While the latest official Road Safety report published on February 7 reports one, a closer examination shows that in reality the number of deaths in January 2013 was not 239 but 271 … 12.2% decrease in January 2014 compared to January 2013, which itself was !
Stay alert, yes…
"This report is partly explained by less winter weather conditions in January 2014 than in January 2013, which led users of motorized two-wheelers to drive more", even argues the government body, estimating that "the the fight against road insecurity is a constant battle and it is up to everyone to remain vigilant "…
Remain vigilant: the message was well understood by the association 40 million motorists who raised the hare this weekend: "it seems that Road Safety has made a mistake in its mathematical formula since January 2013 had ended on a balance sheet of 271 road deaths and that in 2014, the month of January saw a FALL of more than 12% in road deaths with 33 lives saved compared to 2013 (271 killed in January 2013 against 238 in January 2014) ", indicates the association which" simply wanted to restore the truth in the figures and give motorists the benefit of the constant improvement in the figures ".
… but not only on the road !
Daniel Quero, president of 40 million motorists, notes that it is "all the same disconcerting to observe that with ever better figures, Road Safety is still anchored in the prospects of increasing our repressive arsenal or ‘lowering of speed limits’. The general delegate of the association, Pierre Chasseray, believes that "Manuel Valls is driving against the grain: that the Minister of the Interior announces a drop in speed limits even as the figures improve makes no sense . The French would not understand it and would not forgive it ".
Except that a small arrangement between numbers is still very practical when you want to convey the idea that the more speed cameras, lower speeds, checks, fines, license withdrawals and vehicle confiscation will be. , plus us fill the public deficit will be safe on the roads…
