DRIVERS exiting Hele Road, Kingsteignton, take their lives in their hands every time they drive into Exeter Road, it is being claimed.

Residents maintain it is a certain future death trap and they want Devon County Council to act now before there is a fatality or serious accident.

Teignbridge district and Kingsteignton town councillor Joan Lambert, who is leading the call said Hele Road residents were worried sick because the junction was their only way out.
