Bikers account for 75% of deaths or serious collisions on Cheshire's Cat and Fiddle

THE CAT and Fiddle in Cheshire is Britain's most dangerous road, says an article on BBC News.
The Road Safety Foundation names the eight-mile stretch of single-carriageway A537 between Macclesfield and Buxton, as the riskiest road in Britain.

The survey states that since 2001, the road has seen 43 fatal or serious collisions,with nearly three-quarters involving motorcyclists.

The position comes despite the introduction of crash barriers along the road by the county council.

More worringly, when motorcycle collisions are removed from the figures, the A537 moves to become one of the safest in the country, the foundation said.
