Cant believe I aint got a thread on here today

For shutting the A6 south of Lancaster,
Been told it was on the radio,
Had a car pull out on me and T-Boned it, couldnt do much apart from drop a bum spud.

Hope she recovers well.

I don’t think you are allowed to start your own thread, normally you have to be called names and guess whether your parents were married, you certainly are not a professional if there were no children involved. :laughing:

she could have been someone’s Mother

or even some mothers daughter

Was this mid to late afternoon?

I live on the A585 just north of M55 J3 and there were A LOT of emergency service vehicles went flying by on blues on twos heading north.

Hope you’re ok B1 GGK as even if you’re calm at the scene and maybe even drive the truck back, it can hit hard once you get home and relax.

You alright mate? Didn’t break your flask or anything serious?

Was there a big creamy mess in the cab?

Nearly had that happen to me once a while back, some bird pulled out of one of the layby’s on the a42 with me on the limiter, managed to brake & avoid her whilst noticing the trailer trying to overtake me in the mirror. :unamused:

I’ve since heard there was a serious accident on our road yesterday afternoon.

This afternoon I was in Kearsely near Bolton and saw a guy get knocked off his push bike by a female car driver turning an easy sweeping left at a set of lights. She was correctly positioned in the left turning lane. Guess the biker must have come up the inside of her whilst she waited at the lights, then she must have turned not being aware of his presence. Lycra, helmet, etc.

Right on my door step then, must have got it cleard by the time i came back

Isn’t that where the staggered x roads is? Its a very dangerous junction that. I’ve seen several near misses there. They pull out of one road & then stop on the main road waiting to enter the other road.

No think you are thinking of the junction near cabus maby wtih the road that goes toward scorton

Slightly staggered yeh, Signpost for Bay Horse there, I stopped on a a bridge over a brook next to the sign for Ellel.

This is the junction A6 - Cockerham Rd - Bay Horse. Ellel is a few miles further on where they have the annual ploughing match.

Yeah thats the one near my house, sorry I never think of them as staggerd, Most accidents there are due to artics truning left two sharply and taking the wall out or getting stuck

Aye thats the junction,
Go past the junction not even 50 yards and you get a small bridge, you got a sign for Ellel there :wink:

OP is right. Potters brook stone bridge just north of there with a low sign for Ellel “district.”

(you posted the above as I was trying to post this :wink: )

What’s confusing is that the village of Ellel is some miles further north.

I can’t get the embed to work in the above post. Copying the “embed” HTML code from street view & then pasting it into the post doesn’t work. Anybody?
