No left turns for cars saves millions of litres of fuel and is safer

Another fine example of a bit of common sense and minor behavioral change can have a huge impact.
The safety figures are based on US studies. With all the bikes in the Netherlands the percentage may not as low as shown but I believe that right turns for cars and vans are still safer than left turns.

Does anyone have figures / studies on right versus left turns in the Netherlands (or that part of Europe where they drive at the right (hand) side of the roads)?
