more to the point; yet another accident in Hull - do a google news search for accidents in Hull and it will blow your socks off. Could there be more accidents in hull than shootings in the USA, should Americans be allowed guns, should the good people of Hull be allowed the motor vehicle ?
Totally agree Bluey. Also, some pedestrians don’t even bother looking

I believe that’s a countrywide problem with more and more people used to traffic on the other side of the road where they come from. I’ve nearly spattered what I believe was a foreign student who was about to cross the road right in front of me on a 40 mph road. I clocked that she was checking the traffic in the wrong direction, and was about to step out on me. Thankfully the sound of my horn stopped her from taking that step, as otherwise things were not going to be pretty, and I didn’t have a chance of stopping.
She was cute as well!
