Motorcycle accidents in the first three months of the year were down by 27 per cent, says the Department for Transport. The big reduction was in line with a huge fall in motorcycle usage (and showroom footfall!) with roads across the entire country badly affected by snow and ice. The DfT says that motor vehicle traffic was down by one per cent against the first quarter of last year. Total casualties fell by six per cent to 23,660.
