Probably a few car crashes... But generally the number overall in 2005 improved.

It did indeed. That's where I got it from.

The road toll over 2005 dropped, but the toll over the Christmas period was considerably more.

ASB Classis Woman's WTA tennis tournament was won by Marion Bartolli of France... that was last week in Auckland.

And the Heineken Open ATP men's tournament is on right now... same place.
