Murder in UK March 2006 - March 2007 - 755 (to the best of my knowledge)
Road deaths for same period - approx 3600
Time spent reducing deaths on roads is much more productive in preserving life.
I certainly wouldn't want my daughter killed by a speeding idiot because the police decided that catching one gang member who killed another (IMHO let them get on with it) was better than trying to keep some sort of control on our roads. It is bad enough now in some places (Basildon), but can you imagine the chaos that would ensue if there was no chance of getting caught? It would be like living in a war zone (some would say like Basildon!)
Time to duck methinks
