Thomas Reid

1. 1. previous incidents causing injuries

   “Evidence emerged during the inquest that there were at least two previous incidents along that part of the road. Once causing fatal injuries and one causing critical injuries. Additionally numerous other minor incidents.”

2. 2. obscured route marker board

   “The route marker board 155 meters from the junction, is the only advanced warning of the junction ahead. The location and scale of the sign mean that it could be obscured by passing large vehicles, such as LGV's, especially if they are slow moving. This happens often given the presence of the junction.”

3. 3. lack of sufficient signage

   “Evidence also emerged at the inquest that Derby County Council was aware of the issue and were looking at more signage, larger signs and additional pre- warning signs. This was discussed last October at a Derbyshire County Council meeting. It was not known what, if anything, Derbyshire County Council would do about this known risk”
