Liberal Democrat campaigner Nick Machnik-Foster has now called for Wolverhampton Council to take action on the city's 'dangerous' roads.

He said: "Yet another major accident on a major Wolverhampton road. It is time to have average speed cameras introduced to catch those that think they don't have to obey the laws before more people get killed or seriously injured."
