I agree that when it comes to extremely expensive ways of *improving* the basic safety threshold (such as the £17 million per death saved Advanced Train Protection system) then the money is better spent on road safety.
But when you have crashes (that never used to happen) occurring because they're not maintaining the track properly, then I think there is much more of a case to answer. (Of course the problem is that having badly skimped on maintenance before incidents, they then tend to totally over-react afterwards).
