It meant the flow of the traffic was better, there were less accidents, less deaths, I think that's an important factor.

There's no excuse, it's just an opportunity that presented in a limited way and that happened and as soon as the press rang me I didn't deny it I just said 'that's it' and I had to go home and explain it.
