Travellers on the B3137 should be very wary

Recently accidents on the road from Tiverton to Witheridge have been frequent and nasty.

On Monday 7th of January there was a head-on crash between Withleigh and Page's Cross, leaving the two cars involved in pieces.
Today there have been rumours of a crash just outside of Petroc College in Tiverton.

And at around midday there was nearly a fatal accident near Cruwys Morchard woods, again. An elderly man was waiting to turn into Page's Cross this morning, when a reckless driver smashed straight into the back of him.

The elderly man's car was spun right round into the middle of the road, nearly causing severe damage to another car just passing.
Witnesses say it was one of the scariest things they'd ever seen, and that they "just feel bad for the old man."

However we hear that despite the shock of the accident, they think he's going to be okay.

The question is are drivers just reckless, or is it the B3137 that's a nasty road to drive on?
