Highways Agency switch off motorway lights to "save the planet"
http://cars.aol.co.u...ave-the-planet/
"The startling revelation has been discovered after the motoring organisation the AA"
Not startling, if you use M/ways you will know that lights in long stretches have been turned off.
" drivers have had to rely on their headlamps and cats eyes"
And the problem here is?
""They shouldn't have to squint in the dark. We're going to end up with a motorway network that's only partially lit.""
I have not had to squint in the dark, if you feel you cannot drive in the dark, do not drive then!
""The risk of fatal accidents increases in the dark simply because of reduced visibility."
Have you any figures to prove that the collision rate has gone up?
