There needs to be some more evident sign of the Give Way to cause people to STOP at the GIVEWAY sign, I live at Lakeland Villas and I had to clap breaks about three times already because drivers do not stop and look before going past the giveway sign. Please people pay more attention at GIVEWAY Signs.
People need to realise that they are causing a problem and hindering the emergency crew when they block them in. In turn endangering the life of the patient. Have some decorum people and stop rubber necking.
The stretch of road between King Sport round about and Hurley’s round about should be a 25-30 mile per hour zone. There is a school there and nobody slows down.
Glad to know there aren’t any serious injuries. However it was truly disturbing to see the crowds of people, and cars just lingering about, as paramedics were at the scene. People just started parking their cars on the side of the road, and went wondering onto the scene. I know many people were concerned, but seriously, you weren’t doing any justice by crowding the area, and causing congestion on the road!
Perhaps it wouldn’t be a bad idea to test/re-educate people on the correct use of roundabouts when they renew their drivers licenses. I use that intersection/roundabout daily and can’t tell you the number of near misses I’ve had by someone roaring up beside me using the wrong lane … without even a thought of using their indicator.
Ruber necks make me sick.
