Tram accidents almost halved
The number of accidents involving trams has gone down by 45% over the past seven years, according to figures released by the traffic ministry on Wednesday.
But there was a slight increase in 2007. The ministry blames this on cyclists listening to music who do not hear the tram coming, and tourists who do not realise the danger when crossing roads.
