Dept of Transport survey. Speed 7th on list

Anybody else see tonights news about the Dept of Transport survey on accident causes? Speed was near the bottom of the list and very low in percentage terms. Northamptonshire plod spokesman response? The survey is wrong!!!!!!! Unacountable and out of control.
