I wish to confirm I was a victim of that accident waiting to happen

IN his letter (October 14) on Ballincollig traffic and the Carrigrohane cycle route, Richard Leahy prophetically hit the nail on the head.

His last line read: “Surely an accident waiting to happen”.

Well, I was in that accident, which was due to my own fault and naivety. Having cycled through Ballincollig, I headed for the city via Carrigrohane Road.
