junction, Blenheim Road has&nbsp;right of way over Kimberley Road \u2013 but visibility&nbsp;was bad and drivers on Kimberley Road often didn\u2019t stop, said Ms

up or down Blenheim Road at speed, then that\u2019s when the collision happens,\u201d she said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich
