Worth the risk

To most people a road accident is something which always happens to the other fellow, yet, as the film points out, sooner or later one in every six people alive today will be involved in one. Every day road accidents occur on average one every three and a half minutes, yet everyday, pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists continue to take risks.
