Councils statistical yearbook, which is just off the press, shows that 21 per cent of the 32,500 fatal motor vehicle accidents last year occurred on Saturdays. Sunday was second highest, with 19 per cent of the fatal accidents. Then came Friday with 14 per cent. Monday and Wednesday each had 12 per cent of the fatal accidents, and Tuesday and Thursday 11 per cent. Saturday also led the list last year for all motor vehicle accidents, including those causing property damage as well as injury, with 19 per cent occurring on that day. Sunday was next with 16 per cent. v E v A lot of youngsters have been raised in the past twenty years with the idea that government support is a normal thing for farmers to expect at all times.
