问题      Motorways are, no doubt the safest roads in Britain. Mile 【C1】______ mile, vehicle for vehicle, you axe much 【C2】______ likely to be killed or seriously injured than on an ordinary road. On 【C3】______ hand, if you do have a serious accident on a motorway, fatalities are much more likely to 【C4】______  than in a comparable accident 【C5】______  on the roads.
     Motorways have no 【C6】______  bends, no roundabouts or traffic lights and 【C7】______  speeds are much greater than on other roads. Though the 70 mph limit is 【C8】______  in force, it is often treated with the contempt that most drivers have for the 30 mph limit applying in built up areas in Britain. Added to this is the fact that motorway drivers seem to like traveling in groups with perhaps 【C9】______  ten meters between each vehicle. The resulting horrific pile-ups 【C10】______  one vehicle stops for some reason—mechanical failure, driver error and so on—have become all 【C11】______  familiar through pictures in newspapers or on television. How 【C12】______  of these drivers realize that it takes a car about one hundred meters to brake to a stop 【C13】______  70 mph? Drivers also seem to think that motorway driving gives them complete protection from the changing weather. 【C14】______  wet the road, whatever the visibility in mist or fog, they 【C15】______  at ridiculous speeds oblivious of police warnings or speed restrictions 【C16】______  their journey comes to a conclusion.
      Perhaps one remedy 【C17】______  this motorway madness would be better driver education. At present, learner drivers are barred 【C18】______  motorways and are thus as far as this kind of driving is 【C19】______ , thrown in at the deep end. However, much more efficient policing is required, 【C20】______  it is the duty of the police not only to enforce the law but also to protect the general public from its own foolishness.
