This information isn't ready available, and would require the considerable diversion of Police and Road Safety resources to attempt to provide the information that the member has requested. If the member has a more specific concern that he thinks warrants the diversion of Police and Road Safety resources to attempt to provide the information that the memebr has requested., I would ask him to put that specific question on notice.
