#3 Has Blair been taking Carter's Little Dementia Pills? While auto accident fatalities are of concern, Islamic terrorism promises to kill many more people, it just hasn't gotten around to it yet. In his leadership role, Blair should remain more focused on issues of national security than face time with some Formula One celebrity.

#5 I think England's real problem is that they drive on the wrong side of the road.

From what I've heard they intend to rectify this little problem on a phased basis as per usual British government implementation of programs. At first, the changeover will only apply to heavy lorries.

#7 It would be great news if the MSM keeps a daily count of highway deaths. Once the public realizes the numbers are so far off the scale vs. war deaths, the public would simply ignore the war, which they tend to do when they are not personally involved anyway.
Personally, I would like a daily count of college student deaths due to binge drinking.

#8 A year or two back, I read that all the wars on the planet - including Iraq and Afghanistan - had resulted in an estimated 300,000 deaths in that year, tragedies every one.

Highway deaths in that same period were 1.2 million. Where's the outrage?
