Editing London congestion charge (section)

===Road safety===
TfL estimated that the charge has led to a small reduction in road traffic casualties against a background trend of improvement across London and across [[Reported Road Casualties Great Britain|the rest of Great Britain]] over the period. Cars and motorcycles have seen the biggest reduction in accidents, whereas bicyclists have seen a slight increase, which may reflect their increased numbers.<ref name="tfljune2007" />

Of the reduction from 2,598 personal injury crashes inside the zone in the year before the scheme to 1,629 by 2005 TfL estimated that some 40 and 70 injuries may have been avoided annually due to the introduction of the charging zone, with most of the remaining reduction attributed to other changes to the road network favouring its people-moving capacity.<ref name="tfljune2006" />
