With the placement of this new bench in front of the Co-op is an accident waiting to happen. I have witnessed a number of vehicles trying to make a left for the Exeter road through heavy traffic. As the traffic is backed up trying to make a right turn for Teignmouth. Trucks and vans mount the kerb trying to get by. Also where this is placed at the end of the loading bay it would only would take someone to hit the wrong pedel and the vehicle would shoot forward causing injury or something worse. After I took this picture a truck had mounted the kerb and the wheels came to close to the kids sitting on that bench.  All this needs is to be put it alongside the bench at the rear. I have notified the correct authority, will wait and see if they act in a timely manner. I can't seem to get the photo on here but you all know where this bench is.

Very interesting point being made here. Perhaps someone responsible for the position of this particular bench so close to the road could come forward and explain. Wouldnt be connected with a certain use of the lawn would it ???????? Strange how the H & S assessments never spotted this one ermmmm
