P13 delays tonight

[kiera]

If you're waiting for a P13 tonight, expect delays as there are 4 of them stopped in Underhill / Whateley road at the moment.I think one of them must have broken down.

No it was just a stubborn lady blocking the route so nobody else could go bye

Is that true? What happened in the end, then?

I passed by there around that time (on foot, luckily) and there was a queue of traffic right down the road with two cars head to head apparently unable to move.

I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often round here, it's like driving down a one-track country lane in many roads where cars are parked both sides and no room to pass something coming in the other direction.

Did somebody just refuse to reverse out of the way?

It is crazy around here...I have a small car and the only time I go down the back roads is at the last minute to get to my house because 4x4s and people carriers come down and NEVER give way even if they turn into a road and you are already there. There is no reason why they cannot wait at the end.

My daughter was in this situation and the wing mirrors of both cars were knocked- my daughter said let's forget it knock for knock but the other person said she was phoning the cops and after 10 minutes a belligerent big bloke turned up- so my daughter got in her car and cleared out....
