You know what, Humph? I get a bit cheesed off with this lazy nonsense being trotted out about the good old days. The truth is, far more people were killed and maimed on the roads in the good old days. You may not have been, AC may not have been, but many were not so unlucky. I don't think anyone can, with a straight face, suggest that the roads are no more safe now than they were in 1980. The numbers of dead and injured speak for themselves.
