Couldn't of happended at a better time, They are doing a survey down there to see about putting in a zebra crossing.


BTW hope no one was hurt.

Looks like those Give Way road signs should be given an urgent re-painting.

Looks like they both fell asleep at the wheel, happens all the time in Southport.

Absolute rubbish, if anything turning a road into an obstacle course makes bad drivers even worse, the most common fault that I see is drivers who simply cannot or are too bone idle to turn right correctly, how often do we all see drivers cutting the corner when turning right.

Speed limits or speed humps will not change that in any way.

Both 'parked' perfectly.......on pavement!

(Should've gone to Reggie Molehusbands driving school)

These Pics taken WELL after the event ! Went past just after accident - I DID NOT WITNESS IT - so I can't say what actually happened, but I surmise that the green thing (Fiat ?) came out of side road and Volvo going towards lights = BUMP !!!
OTS is slipping.

The green thing you 'Richard Head' is actually a Hyundai and thick barstewards like you should not be allowed to surmise. That is my car and I was minding my own business driving down Marshside Road towards Churchtown lights when another male 'Richard Head' failed to stop at the junction of Longacre and Marshside Road so get your facts straight!!!!!!!!!!!!! Surmising causes distress and after just being released from hospital 1 hour ago I have have to put up with stupid fuffin comments .... get a life ... I nearly lost mine!!!!!!!
