    “Those roads are too dangerous. My partner drives along those roads to get to work and I am scared every day till i get a text to say she is OK.

    People drive recklessly, over taking, speeding and White van men driving bumper to bumper because they are following someone doing the speed limit.

    Mud on the roads from tractors, rain, wind. And now in winter, ice and snow.

    It doesn't bear thinking about.

    My thoughts go out to the young man's family. My sincere sympathies.”
