Be careful through the Lake District.
My Nephew has just driven from Glasgow to Manchester and has said that the roads in Scotland are not bad, but the ones South of the border are atrocious.

An MX5 imbedded in a tree.
A focus looking very sad.

Just a couple of several accidents he saw.

If these roads are to be blamed for 'accidents', why don't they kill EVERYONE? Why is that these so-called killer roads and blackspots only seem to pick on loonies; those with bad or bald tyres; nuts who can't drive very well; drivers of shagged out cars; people who can't concentrate; those with no seatbelt on; drunks; mobile phone users; those who can't adjust their driving for the prevailing road and weather conditions and low-lives with no regard for other road users?

Yes, but it's no reason to neglect the roads just becasue there are bad drivers around. You're being awfully presumptios about the causes of the accidents too.
