WITH reference to the A64 black spot (The Press, May 2), three years ago I wrote to The Press expressing my concerns about this crossing; I also signed the petition you mentioned.

I can’t believe it has taken so long to be considered. Anyway, better late than never, I suppose, but why a roundabout?

First of all, I don’t believe there is sufficient room for one; secondly, there would be the same problem, only traffic from the right would benefit, while all other drivers would have to wait for some courteous motorist to let them out.

Let’s have traffic lights, then everyone can have a fair and safe deal.
