Could be true if the accidents are ALL due to inattention and speed.
However no ment ...

Why not wait for new tech being tested which has real safety capability to identify use of mobile phones and 'tailgating'?

Presuming its an older Gatsco type, were 2 photos presented or just a radar measurement I wonder? Also was any register ...
