There have been numerous crashes on the crossroads between Rue St Pierre, Route du Longfrie and Route de Lihou. The most recent saw a car collide with a scooter last Friday, in which the scooter was broken in half.

Izzy Ogbeide said the police had been around and suggested that a filter could be installed on the crossroads.

'Hopefully there will be a filter,' she said.

'There are so many accidents there. As you come up the hill, you can't see. It's dangerous.'

She said her son narrowly avoided getting hurt in a crash involving a minibus on the junction, when the vehicle crashed across the pavement.

'It definitely needs a filter in turn,' she said.
