A video on The Oban Times Facebook page which shows a dangerous overtaking manoeuvre by a car coming out of Connel prompted comment.
Laurie Cameron posted: ‘The idiots on the roads that cause the problems as myself and my son witnessed first hand this morning!! I was sitting waiting to pull out of Dunbeg when some idiot in an Astra overtook a pickup towing a boat right at the junction. First of all, it was busy due to the time of day, school time, but he crossed the double white lines proceeding to overtake in the filter lane for Dunbeg!! people take stupid risks all the time.’
Paul Smith recounted: ‘Had a Merc blind overtake me and a camper heading east on the Poppies corner last summer in the face of oncoming traffic. If I hadn’t stood on my brakes he would have had nowhere to go and folk would have died. Idiot is an understatement. You only see the police with blues and twos on the way to an accident! Where are they?’
