Thanks Lomac. Saved me some trouble.

@Zedbra, there was a map and huge table which was released under the freedom of information act, I cannot seem to find it for some reason now.

But basically, historically there was always less accidents on the S2S, but the fatality figures of the two highways were fairly similar. This indicates that the accidents that happened on the S2S were of a more serious nature. However after the renovations for the Olympics the highways are not even comparable in terms of figures anymore. The Coq has massively more accidents year over year and fatality figures are also higher.

Ill see if I can dig up the table again. It is somewhere on the interwebz.
