As part of this initiative dedicated teams will be carrying out in-depth research in selected cases to get a better understanding of what is really causing collisions on our roads. These collisions will be analysed in 3 regions over 3 years and will look at collisions covering a range of modes of travel, including motorbikes. The Government will release a final report at the end of the project.</p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 21/01/2019 17:44:22 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
