Joe Crowley has been travelling up and down the UK looking at some of the nation's most dangerous roads and asking if there is more that can be done to make these routes safer for those who use them. 

Joe is in Lincolnshire where he is looking at the A18, a road that a recent report ranked as one of the most dangerous for drivers anywhere in the UK. He meets the father of one tragic victim and gets the assessment of an independent road safety expert, before confronting those responsible for the road. 

Also on the show, we travel to Wisbech in Cambridgeshire to hear how a concerted local campaign saw major work carried out on a short stretch of the A1101 resulting in a dramatic improvement in safety; and Joe finds out what difference the type of road surface you are driving on makes to stopping distances.
