We've got some temp lights and the road down to a single side just around the corner from the house, it's after a blind bend yet they've positioned all the signs giving you any warning after the apex in the few feet before you actually reach the lights.
Really daft and moving the signs a couple of feet past the apex would actually give people proper warning rather than just coming across cars stopped in the road after the bend.
So I live just off a quiet road that leads to the main part of the village. In the last months we've had 3 cars go through either hedges in to the livestock fields or in to people's gardens. Each time apparently a 'medical emergency'. Surely that's statistically improbable?!
TBF some people poor driving has made my heart skip a beat .Interesting you say that - within the last week there has been multiple crashes involving medical incidents, mostly heart attacks, near me:
Can't remember if it was Sunday or Monday night someone had a heart attack at the wheel and drove through a hedge about a couple of miles behind where the crash in the first image is.
I'm more surprised when I don't have a bad driving encounter tbh...Biggest gripe is roundabouts around here. People just dont know how to drive or follow/read signs.
Everyone thinks they can just do what they want. Small roundabouts, no one cares about give ways on your right, they just sail through.
Larger roundabouts, don't get me started.
I now have stopped horning/moan. I just let it be and continue on my day as i expect it most of the time when out and about.
If you had brighter headlamps they would have seen you coming.Had someone the other day as I was driving on the M60 at 5am 60mph cruise control, car on the hard shoulder with hazards on stationary. As I'm about 6 cat lengths from it, indicator comes on and instantly pulls out into lane one at 5mph.
Luckily there was nothing in lane 2 so I could swerve but if there had of been I doubt I'd have stopped in time.
I'm amazed people don't know that your supposed to get up to speed on the shoulder before changing into lane 1.
My Daughter was being dropped off by her friends Mum last night. She drove past my house, turned right, then reversed straight back to turn around. My neighbor then reversed out her drive and turned straight into the side of the friends mums car. Made a right mess of both doors. (couple of months old Ford small SUV thing)
Will the neighbor be at fault, since they joined the road and hit the side of the other car? I'd assume 50:50 if both reversed and hit directly.
