Prince Philip's mishap.

Somehow managed to post my above message before I had finished it! Carrying on I meant to add...

...then perhaps there wouldn't be the need to have so many safety related signs, schemes, road markings and so on on our roads, which in themselves can be quite daunting at times, and possibly make things worse from a safety aspect. 

We get twice as many in Wales.

Some want that in Cornwall as well😕

Yes Wn. Much as I love Wales, and I have total respect for the Welsh language, in fact I'm intrigued by it, I do find the road signs in both languages a bit difficult to read on main roads at complex interchanges.

Perhaps on trunk routes, such as the A494/A55 into North Wales it would be helpful, for the first 10 miles or so, if the main signs had the English version first. Once well into Wales one can adjust to the signage being Welsh first and English second, and rightly so.

First place we ever used our in car Sat Nav was in Wales. By time road names had been pronounced, we had missed the turn!😂

Same goes with reading the road signs.

WHY has the media decided to make reference to another crash involving the prince which happened a lot of years ago!!!!!!!!Leave the poor guy alone,he is probably quite upset already.!!!!!!

We’re very familiar with that section of road, more so because we tend to cycle a lot when away in the caravan. I’d judge access and egress to. junctions and forest paths to require particular care when cycling and in a car too. Despite which I’m not keen on rushing into reducing the speed limit, when care and competent driving will do the job, however low the sun is in the sky.

Accidents are an unfortunate fact of life, but let’s not lay their causes at the feet of any specific age group. Better by far, to ensure driver competence with appropriately timed reaction and awareness tests. “Ah but the cost” I can hear in opposition, but increasing transport time through speed limits has a cost too.

This recent accident, much reported in the press, seems to me to expose a great deal about inequalities in privilege.
