According to DfT statistics, the number of people killed on UK roads is at a record low. In 2008, there were 28,567 KSIs (killed or seriously injured), 7% down on 07. Despite that unspeakable annual toll of dead, injured and affected, these figures are publicly welcomed. On FiT Roads - where equality would bring a culture of "After you" rather than "Get out of my way!" - there might be no KSIs at all. Any accidents that might occur would be true accidents, down to human error alone, not events contrived by the dangerous rules of the road. As social beings, we want to take it in turns. But priority makes us live (and die) by a system that is alien to our nature, puts us at war with each other, and gives rise to the high-tech, high-cost network of control which fails us all by treating the symptoms and not the cause.
