That's an interesting article. But the details are sketchy: 300,000 out of a total of how many ? Are there any controlled studies where they establish cause and effect ? e.g. take away Satnav from some drivers and see what happens, or insist that they use it and see what happens. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
