Bad smash involving 2 HGVs Nr Uttoxeter

If you come out uttoxeter on the 518 to said roundabout both lanes say A50 south ,using the vehicles in the right lane for cover is usually the best way .

Yes, that’s what I said 1st, from the A518 onto the A50… Not the other way round… That’d be dangerous, and madness…

Dan Punchard:
Yes he did ,and yes I do turn right in the left lane just like as stated above .

From the A50, RIGHT onto the A518■■ From the LEFT lane when the A50 straight on is a primary exit with 2 lane exit??

:unamused:

Sorry just thought ,other way round !

i think it was last year near the mcdonalds roundabout,a wagon and drag tipped his trailer over on the Stoke-bound side.

One on its side used to be an almost weekly occurence heading eastbound at the roundabout at Blythe Bridge despite all the signs on the approach.

Aye I live about a mile away from lie down roundabout,they did some work on it and have reduced the camber going around the roundabout but still get the odd one now and again that thinks they are driving a rally car rather than a HGV.

Another today,stobarts tipped over on Sudbury roundabout a515/a50 .
