So would you have stopped?

Yes the 120 yards sign went up after my original complaint.
But road markings now are just cheap paint being rubbed out or in the heat melted tar covering.
What happened to the old white paint with reflective glass in.
Two schools of thought…from the drivers viewpoint coming down that land there are more than adequate visual clues to alert a driver to the presence of a junction at a speed that given the bend preceding it they should have adequate time to stop…

Any failure to give way would be careless driving / driving without due care and attention at best..reckless driving in the middle ground..

From your viewpoint to answer the question the flip side is also obvious…

Local knowledge trumps the road furniture…so if you know it’s an accident black spot then you should slow down so you can stop before the potential conflict…
 
Local tyre van overturned at this junction a few weeks ago, so many different car parts strewn in the hedge now it's ridiculous, it's a fast road coming down to the crossroads with not a lot of visibility but still it's down to poor drivers not paying attention unfortunately.

This evening, poor Zed :cry:

I stopped and spoke to coppers and another driver behind me.
I asked who reports to council, just said not us......
Just walked off, other copper pointing finger "Be on ya way".
The road on the left should be closed, it's only a cut through.
