The car you can see circled in yellow is on the wrong side of the road and is blocking said road. I'm not sure how he got there as there are enough signs saying two way traffic; except that is in the road you can see on the right just behind the red van which is where he came from. The driver must be the only person in Torbay who didn't know there are road works going on here. The second problem as I drove through is shown by the photo below.
The two cars in front of me are displaying one of the two annoying tendencies that drivers show when stuck in traffic jams. The first is to get as close to the car in front as possible as this gives the impression that they are making progress. The second is to move out under the mistaken impression that by having a look at the problem ahead will some how make it go away. Note; the white van driver (everyone's pet hate) hasn't moved out and has left me plenty of room to get past. Might have problems getting past the bus though.
Enough on Preston Road Works. Unless there is a real big problem there over the next week.
What else has been happening recently, Oh yes, still raining. It has rained ever day so far this year. Getting to be like the Amazon Rain Forest. And last night the temperature fell right down to 11C. Which is the warmest January night time temperature on record. Either Global Warming is on it's way or as most Western Governments hope, it's just a glitch in the weather. My money is on the global thingamabob.

Hey dave have you noticed that the bus that is coming towards you (X46) is also heading the wrong way just look at his blinds is says (EXPRESS PAIGNTON)and not EXPRESS EXETER
Hi Sandy
I hadn't noticed that, shame you can't see who was driving.
Mind you I could look up the time the photo was taken and check the duty boards and find out who was driving.
Mind you, I don't think I will bother though.
David
