High-res Every death on every road in Great Britain 1999-2010
Each light point is an individual collision which resulted in a  casualty. The intensity of brightness shows where collisions are more  frequent. BBC has also provided several videos that animate 12 years of road crash data. Each light point is the site  of a road collision resulting in injury. The brighter the lights, the  more collisions have occurred. During the morning and late rush hours,  the maps pulse with light.

There is no doubting the skill of designer Toby Ng. His designs have won  him numerous accolades including the Red Dots Awards, International  Design Awards, and the Hong Kong International Poster Triennial Awards  among others. One of his projects, called World of 100 answers  the question: If the world were a village of 100 people, what would its  composition be? The answer consists of twenty brilliantly designed  posters based on statistics about the population around the world under  different classifications. The stats are more powerful because of Ng’s  illustrations. He uses vibrant, bold colors combined with crisp, clean  lines. “Look,” says Ng, “this is the world we are living in.” by http://www.toby-ng.com/
