  WMA - Policy : Statement on Alcohol and Road Safety
Road crashes are set to become the 3rd greatest cause of death in the world by 2020, whereas in 1990 they were in 9th place.
A change in the behaviour of road users with regard to alcohol consumption would appear to be the most promising approach to preventing traffic deaths and injuries.
In most countries, road crashes linked to alcohol consumption affect adolescents and young adults to a disproportionately high degree, and every available resource should be mobilised to reduce their consumption of alcohol.

  A47 road - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The A47 is a trunk road in England linking Birmingham to Great Yarmouth (although most of the section between Birmingham and Nuneaton has been reclassified as the B4114).
At Nuneaton, the road re-emerges from a junction with the A444, near a BP garage at the Anker service station on Weddington Road.
From Kings Lynn, the road goes over the River Great Ouse, near to some sugar beet factories on a very busy dual-carriageway built in the 1970s.

The A17 is one of the county's major arterial routes.
This can make the road extremely congested at certain times and there is a high likelihood of caravans, cars towing trailers, motorbike riders and families in cars on the way to the coast all combining together.
As with many roads in Lincolnshire the A631 is a winding single carriageway road that is frequently subject to a 60mph speed limit.

Official road naming and marking conventions don't vary much throughout the state; unofficially, though, the way people refer to the various roads do vary a bit.
County roads and highways are identified in various ways, but virtually all identifications include a letter, e.g.
This is not true for County routes (there's both an A17 and a J17 in California, in Shasta County and Merced County respectively), nor is it true across the US as a whole -- there are separate Interstate 280s in at least California and New Jersey.

 washingtonpost.com: Jewish Leaders Back 'Road Map'
Palestinian lawmakers yesterday met President Bush's main condition for releasing the road map by approving a new cabinet headed by the first Palestinian prime minister, Mahmoud Abbas.
They particularly question whether the United Nations and European powers can be trusted to judge whether Israel and the Palestinians are meeting their obligations at each stage of the plan.
We think the principles enunciated by the president in his June 24 speech would do that, and there are elements in the road map that contradict that," Malcolm Hoenlein, executive director of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, said yesterday.

Apparently a minor road goes to the East if you're particularly interested in watching the gliders (which limit their activities to when RAF Cranwell itself is closed), but I missed it last time I went by so it must be very small!
