A motorcyclist killed 3 years ago and your friend's dad having an accident surely don't qualify for "blackspot" status?I'm not sure this is that accurate, as there is a blackspot about 5 miles from me where a motorcyclist got killed 3 years ago and that hasn't shown up, also a friend's dad had an accident where he had his leg, ribs and jaw all broken and that hasn't shown up either
Either way, the figures are still shocking to see like that

Considering the number of journeys made, and the variety of types of roads we have, I think our figures are pretty good.
However, we can't be complacent as a lot of the improvement is down to safer vehicles not safer drivers.
The driving test is a inadequate and needs to be much more comprehensive.
And to back that up, anybody caught driving without a license should at the bare minimum be tagged.
Sounds like a candidate road for some "road engineering" to give drivers unaware of the area some warning of the likelihood of slow or stopped traffic ahead.
