Right then...

I kinda know the road where it happened. I remember going along it many years ago. I've since been told it's one of the most dangerous roads in Somerset. Not because it's a high speed road or anything like that, just its twisty and a hill. You can see NOTHING! It's also about an hour on the twisties from me...

Row = barny, ruckus, arguement....you get the idea.

Priority system = a means of letting one direction of traffic have priority over the other I'm not..how it would work on that road I'm not sure.

Shunt = in this context is a crash, collision... at work is something else.

1:4 road = the gradient is 1 in 4.

Trunk road....I'm not sure exactly how to word this one. It's a main road, normally a dual carriageway, but not a motorway/highway. I'll go off and check that one.
[edit] ok been off and found this on Wikipedia
Quote:

A trunk road, trunk highway, or strategic road is a major road—usually connecting one or more cities, ports, airports, etc.—which is the recommended route for long-distance and freight traffic. Many trunk roads have segregated lanes in a dual carriageway, or are motorway standard.
