We attended their funeral and we drove that stretch of road, its easy to see why there are accidents on it, there didn't seem any real passing spaces and it is extremely narrow, I definately think there should be something done, but unsure what, don't think there would be much point in fencing it off or anything as its the actual width of the road thats the problem  :? it is very very sad that another family has had to loose a loved one :(
