I was at a debate today between Andrew Curran and John Adams. It was
quite interesting: I think Dr Curran might be a useful ally in the
road danger reduction cause.

As an interventionist medic he is really looking for ways that he can
effect a reduction in the numbers of injured children he sees. He was
very open to the idea of strict liability as a way of making a
significant step change for the better in this regard.

This made the Radio Five news this morning, under the banner that the
College of Emergency Medicine want mandatory helmets for under-16s. No
mention of the debate or of how they reached this conclusion. There's
nothing on the CEM website, except the announcement of the debate in
the conference programme, which doesn't show up using their "search".
