So do the cars not indicate that they are going do turn into Milnshaw Road? If not it is the fault of the drivers.

accymel · 06-09-2005, 11:41

Tho ive yet to see a pedestrian run a car over mmmmm ????

WillowTheWhisp · 06-09-2005, 11:44

They don't all indicate and that's another of my pet gripes against drivers, speaking with my pedestrian's hat on. Why do so many drivers seem to think they only need to indicate to other motorists and if there are no cars there then pedestrians don't count? But even when they do indicate it means they intend to do it but you're still never sure when they intend to do it and they do seem to sneak up on you all of a sudden.

BTW it's Milnshaw Lane.

accymel · 06-09-2005, 11:46

It probably got to be the worse road to cross over in accy

some drivers indicate late so that the person behind dosnt think they are meaning to indicate to go down knowlmere street as the two entrances are right next toeach other so once the car goes past knowlmere street it is easy to miss the inication if given and some drivers do take the corner pretty sharp and end up going onto the cobbles at the end of kwickfits path which is actualy the pavement but theres no kerb just yellow lines to show where the road starts and the pavement ends

kinda tricky to explain theres so many things wrong with that junction the only way to understand is to try crossing your self at aroung 8am or tea time

accymel · 06-09-2005, 11:53

well they expect u to be psychic LOL

WillowTheWhisp · 06-09-2005, 11:54

It doesn't help that there are two places they could be going or coming from.

harwood red · 06-09-2005, 12:05

I always indicate regardless of whether there is another car around or not! You just never know.

Now I just need to learn to drive

chav1 · 06-09-2005, 13:29

It sounds like that next changing for a start.

cashman · 06-09-2005, 14:21

it is a bad junction for pedestrians no doubt - maybe could do with a pelican crossing.or summat!

chav1 · 06-09-2005, 15:38
