Hi the house at the corner of my road has a hedge and a fence which is blocking the view of any cars or pedestrians coming and going from my road. I have had numerous near misses of cars coming around the bend as you cannot see them until they are on top of you. The road is inside my estate.
Now that the kids on the estate are getting bigger the are coming up on their bicycles and there was a near miss the other day with 3 of them.
I live in a cul de sac so we know to go really slow going around the corner.
I rang the council and they say they can do nothing about a high hedge even though it is blocking the view of the road.
I asked if there was a crash or a child got knocked down who was to blame and he said the driver!!!.
The hedge is on the inside of a fence which is at least 6 foot tall. Surely if it is obscuring your view of oncoming traffic it should be removed .
Any opinions welcome on this
Thanks
