Re: sometimes it beggars belief

on a busy day the zebra crossing causes cars to stop on the roundabout which is extreemly dangerous as the whole idea of a roundabout is to keep traffic flowing so cars not been able to see around corners are forced to slam on when they find themselves with stationary vehicles to contend with where there shouldnt be any.

im guessing LCC thought that people couldnt understand the big letters written in capitals saying LOOK RIGHT on the road helping those unfamiliar with teh concept that looking out for cars reduces risk of death or injury so have now resorted to zebra crossings

bare in mind that these zebra crossings are newish and there was never any signs put up before them making motorists aware of the changes like there is supposed to be so people familiar to the town wernt aware of them until someone walked out infront of them

also bare in mind if you dont manage to slam on and someone is waiting to cross and a police officer sees you its 3 points on your licence and a fine for failing to stop at a zebra crossing.

mind you it could be close enough to blackburn road for it to fall under the " cant be arsed to do our jobs" criteria
