Ms Bates said: 'On inspecting the road afterwards it's clear that the cars parked on the road at the side are obstructing the view for those coming from the junction and for those driving up to see anything from that junction.
'I am asking for signatures for double yellow lines to be put on that road to avoid any more collisions and also any fatalities.
'From speaking to many people from the surrounding area they feel the same.
