SIR – The distraction of viewing the carnage of road accidents causes them to be repeated.
On a similar basis, the trial of the Mirror Pool fountains caused drivers on the congested Thornton Road to be distracted. There were no accidents, but it is only a matter of time before there will be and the fountains are quoted as a contributory factor.
I suggest that reference is required to the Council’s health and safety manual, for an angle has evidently been missed.
