#175126, nearby

[Image taken 20.10.21] Waitrose, Foss Islands Way, York. This is the main entrance. But the clutter on the pavement and... more worryingly the insubstantial metal support of the barrier. A blind or partially sighted person might not see it. … [more]

A typical blind summit over the many canal bridges in this area, often noisy with motor vehicles tooting their advance.

#48474, nearby

See clip at http://youtu.be/hj7q7RLrAx8 This is just a rushed attempt at a pass. When oncoming traffic appears the driver trying to pass me is forced back into me, passing far too close. Also note that I'm just about to turn off the main … [more]

#48302, nearby

Driver of LY11 CVE passing while I'm nearly in centre of lane, approaching an intersection at a blind bend. (I'm preparing to turn right. This is the single worst point of my daily commute.) This is on High Street in Willingham, … [more]

See clip at http://youtu.be/H28aR0STTsQ At witnessed here before this summit is really unsighted for oncoming traffic. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EU9i87j4OEs The driver here clearly considered that slowing down just in case there was … [more]

See clip at http://youtu.be/W0R57JzNFe8 "Highway code rule 163". http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/TravelAndTransport/Highwaycode/DG_070314 And couldn't see round the corner for oncoming traffic.

#38147, nearby

See clip at http://youtu.be/7Jk--xt87Eg The car comes round the corner clearly not expecting anything to be there and has to slam on the brakes to avoid hitting me or the parked car in front of them. I'm on the right side of my lane so I … [more]

#38080, nearby

See clip at http://youtu.be/_TvMUhKmptI Minimally breaking "Highway code rule 163". http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/TravelAndTransport/Highwaycode/DG_070314 But must come up to the careless driving given all the circumstances. Round a blind … [more]

#38048, nearby

See clip at http://youtu.be/fxpqip9HXwk I'm going along Granchester Road around 20mph about to turn up the hill. I hear a car coming right up behind me, then pull out into the opposite lane (at about 1 second into this clip). They have no … [more]

#32147, nearby

See video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OnSpFdHOi_w This overtake manouevre was started when there was no vision round the corner. If a car had been oncoming the car would have been forced back in (possibly into me) very quickly. … [more]

#32145, nearby

See video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDoHVlmxtTg This overtake manouevre was started when there was no vision round the corner. As the van came from the opposite direction the car was forced back in very quickly. He very nearly hit … [more]

#32135, nearby

See video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzSUpwzha4U The first car hangs back as I go over the bridge, so at the next clear stretch I wave them through, keen to return the good behaviour on the road. The second car might have seen that … [more]

#32037, nearby

See video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZqCcbhtFxw Note the vision of the road round the bend is incredibly limited but a tree and gravestones. And this is at a much higher height than the car driver has. This overtake manouevre was … [more]

#31976, nearby

See video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYysY_tLaSU Okay, a police car, I'd suggest a traffic vehicle. No wonder we have poor driving habits if we are given poor examples. This overtake manouevre was started when there was no vision … [more]

#31200, nearby

See video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haEurZJEqcc Another example, within a mile of why speeding and overtaking over blind summits is really dangerous. Luckily car number two shows everyone how to do it. Part of a trying day ... … [more]

#31197, nearby

See video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EU9i87j4OEs This car's not doing too much wrong, maybe a bit fast. It's just an example of why overtaking me (like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5K5zSUXbVT8) here is incredibly dangerous. Part … [more]

#31084, nearby

We are all held up as we move down this close, winding part of Granchester. I'm on my brakes for a good proportion. At the end, after being very good for so long, the car behind me just must save themselves a second by overtaking earlier … [more]
