'Statistics says something bad's happened on London's roads.' You think?

Oh my. According to Road CC, someone called the Royal Statistics Society has come up with figures that show that 'London's Roads have become more dangerous'. See the story.

Really? What, apart from potholes, has changed on London roads exactly?

It has nothing to do with the 'massive increase' in London cycle commuting that the cycle lobby have been crowing about since 2012 then?

When will the Cycling Lobby become realistic and responsible and acknowledge that the more people who mix and mingle with large essential infrastructure, the more casualties there will be? It's a no brainer really.
