Yesterday the Times reported that Department for Transport had written to Chief Constables blaming them for getting roads policing wrong. Today the Times reports that Department for Transport will consider lowering the drink drive limit.

But Safe Speed says the real story is on the front page of today's Daily Mail.

- We have lost our road safety world lead. We're 20th in Europe for rate of improvement.Road deaths haven't fallen as expected.

- There's one reason and only one reason for this. Department for Transport have given us a road safety policy which has failed.

- Department for Transport won't take responsibility and would rather blame drivers and the Police.

- Department for Transport's speed camera policy has failed to make our roads safer and has only been supported by dodgy statistics, bad science and false assumptions. Speed cameras are at the centre of the policy failure.

Paul Smith, founder of SafeSpeed.org.uk, said: "Road safety policy has failed and Department for Transport must own up. They are responsible. I have been pointing out for years that their policies were ill founded and simply making matters worse."

"We need to scrap speed cameras to get road safety back on track. They haven't saved lives, they couldn't save lives, and we shouldn't have smothered the country with them - it was a deadly mistake."

"Department for Transport is not fit for purpose. It doesn't understand the process of safe driving or how to make our roads safer."
