Rising Bridge roundabout

A motorcyclist lost his leg last night and there were 2 accidents the night before.My wife was nearly side-swiped on Friday afternoon by a car not stopping when coming down from Burnley.There are cars suddenly pulling up mid roundabout due to stop lines for traffic lights.
The area is extremely dangerous on approach because it has not been lined out at the edge of the roundabout,cars are either overshooting into the roundabout or just not stopping thinking they have the right of way and driving into traffic.
Be careful.
 
Thanks for the advice Stevie. Glad your wife was not hurt. Sounds like something needs doing about it and fast.
 
Sorry to hear about the poor lad. At least you have done all you can to try and prevent anyone else being hurt.
 
It needs more care and consideration from all drivers until the lights are working.A roundabout is not a race track
 
The comment by the Police in the newspaper and other at the scene after the accident suggests no other vehicles were involved. We probably won't find out what happened because the newspapers probably won't do a follow up story if only the bike was involved
 
i catch the bus to go to acre ... and to come back again .... im refusing to cross that bypass till its sorted ... by the way that roundabout should have been finished in june last year and its still not finished yet!!!!
 
What a shame our MP has deserted us on Accrington Web when he used to post so often in the past. Maybe he can only spare us enough time to type 140 characters now he is our MP

It's our own fault, we could have sucked up to him and indeed to the councillors that used to post regularly on here but no, we kept asking him and them down to earth questions that he/they were never brave enough to answer honestly.

:(

If only we had the lack of intelligence to understand 5% of what they used to post, then perhaps they would use AccyWeb as their sounding board 95% of the time.
:p

Looking at his twitter he appears to be more interesting in things happening in other countries than Hyndburn
 
Yes, Neil....true, how does that benefit his constituents?
You know, those folk who were confident in his ability to represent them and their concerns.
How betrayed we feel. I am one of those who put my cross in his box. I felt that he knew the town, he knew the needs of the town...and this is how he repays us for our votes.
Never again!
 
he may be staying away from us even more now we are racist biggots for voting out of the EU

thing is even if you delete your comments on social media theres usually someone who sees them
