[bold]Yet[/bold] another A40 crash. All because people are in a hurry and overtake on silly parts of the road.

Wouldn't it be easier to make A40 more compliant with the traffic that it is asked to carry than blame the drivers? If your business does not do well you do not blame your customers!

Unfortunately, i was the driver cut free on 23rd april, i am a very lucky man, to be alive that is! however my collision with a tree at high speed was nothing to do with the a40 though i was leaving it, and alot of the accidents i have been reading about sound like similar strokes of bad luck :(
