The speed at which these trucks travel down Rosherville road is frightening, not to mention the complete disregard for the rules of the road. If this is not resolved, someone is going to be critically injured or worse.

Truck drivers on this road are a law unto themselves, they have no regard or appreciation of the fact that they are literally endangering other road users everytime they speed, perform illegal U-turns or turn without indicating that they are turning.

I was involved in an accident and I am still struggling to get my car fixed, I wont even mention the trauma of driving next to a truck after that. It's really not safe.We need traffic lights .

Total disregard for other road users, very dangerous road due to the trucks parking on the roadside blocking a view to oncoming traffic and reckless driving of truck drivers. A traffic light and speed hump will certainly help.

Truck drivers regularly block the entrance to Bridge Close, and refuse to move claiming they will lose their spot in the queue The truck drivers have total disregard for other drivers and regularly block the road The truck drivers have even removed or damaged the recently installed bollards that are there to prevent parking on the pavement

MSC branded vehicles are parked on the pavements as well as in the moving lanes and regularly disregard the direction of Rosherville Road. This means that ordinary vehicles (passenger cars and small commercial vehicles) are vulnerable because they cannot see or be seen. Severe injury to people cannot be the collateral damage or cost of doing business.

The trucks at Rosherville road have no regard for the rules of the road and they drive as they please. Earlier this year a super link truck crashed in to me and worst part is the driver tried to flee the scene and I had to chase him with the broken car. I eventually stopped him, managed to get hold of his company and we came to an agreement. I was not hurt in the accident. The trucks make Rosherville road dangerous and if nothing is done now a lot more people will be injured.

Reckless and negligent behavior by truck drivers, excessive speeding, parking in the road blocking all lanes in both directions, parking in traffic to stop and buy food from street vendors. Driving on the wrong side of the road into oncoming traffic. Not stopping at stop signs, turning across traffic with total disregard for traffic that has right of way.

Total disregard for other road users, blocking all (4) lanes and sometimes coming down Rosherville Road at high speed. Speed Humps or Traffic Lights might help.

The road was upgrade from 2 lanes to 4 and till these truck have to use the sidewalks as parking and passing "lanes'". they do not adhere to speedlimits, road rules or traffic signs. I have been blocked in for more than an hour, at more than 1 occasion. Rude language and signs are the normal for these truck driver. in the 8 years I have had to use this road, I even had drivers, when your view is blocked, showed me I can go, just to be laughed at when another truck nearly misses me, because it was heading down the road I were told was clear to turn into.

Total Disregard for safety, if they carry on like this its only a matter of time before someone gets critically injured.

I personally arrived at the scene of an unpleasant accident where an EOH manager had been hit by a truck in his VW Polo and it is only a matter of time before a very serious accident occurs as a result of a reckless truck driver!

I was involved in an accident with and injured by a truck on Tuesday who crossed over the white line into oncoming traffic at speed when he could not see if there was oncoming traffic.

the trucks are a real danger, they use all the lanes, which is very stressful for all of us using the road.
