1. 1. overtaking permitted on single broken white line stretch

   “The road at this particular location is governed by a single broken white line indicating that overtaking is permitted. Given the layout of the road, the existence of a side entrance to it, the impact of hedges obscuring the view of the road consideration, in my opinion, ought to be given to putting double white line markings on this particular stretch of road.”

2. 2. protruding cats eye

   “The evidence suggested that one of the most likely causes of the deceased losing control of his motorcycle was contact with a protruding cats eye. This was agreed by the senior investigation officer and the collision investigation officer who both held the view 1 that this may have contributed to the accident. Consideration in my view ought to be given to replacing the "old style cats eyes" with the newer "slim line" version to minimise this risk in the future should it not be considered appropriate”
