DUE TO a misleading photo used on your front page I can understand the comments from B Crawley and L Cole in last week's Dunmow Broadcast.
The road my husband is trying to get a lollipop person for is Woodlands Park Drive and NOT Stortford Road as your picture indicated.
I would like to correct another inaccuracy from the original article. My son did not 'wander' into the road as stated, he misheard me and thought I had said it was safe to cross.
Can I add that had there not been about 10 cars illegally parked outside the school gates at the time he would have seen the car coming for himself as both of my children are very road aware.
