“A stretch of road between Leeds and Wakefield has been singled out as the most dangerous in Yorkshire. The A61 between junction 44 of the M1 and Wakefield was named in a report published today as the road with the highest number of serious and fatal crashes as a proportion of journeys travelled in the county. The Road Safety Foundation found there had been an average of 24 incidents a year on the 10.3km stretch between 2010 and 2012 – making it the sixth most hazardous road in the country.”
