'Bendiest' road in UK is so hard to drive motorists should avoid
'Bendiest' road in UK is so hard to drive motorists should avoid The stretch has an apt nickname and is a real test for even the most experienced drivers The 'bendiest' road in the country has been crowned and drivers are advised to avoid (Image: Google ) A road in Britain with the nickname of Zig Zag Hill has been crowned as Britain's 'bendiest road' thanks to its sharp hairpin turns and steep gradients. And it's so bad to navigate that drivers are warned to avoid it. The stretch of the B3081 near Shaftesbury in Dorset has tight bends, with some almost 180 degrees, and a constant gradient of around 13 per cent making it a nightmare to navigate for motorists. And it's taken the title of the 'bendiest' thoroughfare in the country. Despite being just a mile long, Zig Zag Hill should be avoided, especially in adverse conditions say motoring experts and those who have tackled its twists and turns. And if you do happen upon it, you'll need to deal with four tight hairpin turns which can be nerve-wracking, especially if you have a larger car or are unfamiliar with the route. Don't expect any visibility when you come to a corner and don't be in a rush if you are on Zig Zag Hill. Article continues below On the TruckNetUK forum, one driver said it's a ' very, very slow road to navigate, even in a car'. 'Narrow, twisty and nowhere to pass anything — it is a truly awful road to travel and always has been… ANY other route would be better and faster.' And it becomes even worse in bad weather. Heavy rain can turn the road into a slippery hazard, with water cascading down the hillside increasing the chance of aquaplaning, while snow and ice make the bends even more treacherous, reports the Mirror. Experts strongly recommend avoiding Zig Zag Hill in such conditions, as controlling speed and direction becomes nearly impossible. Driving Zig Zag Hill at night is particularly daunting. The sharpness of the turns means headlights often point into the trees rather than illuminating the road ahead, forcing drivers to peer through side windows into the darkness. So, especially for those unfamiliar with the road, tackling it in the dark is ill-advised. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Even in good weather, the road's design means drivers must stay alert and use low gears to maintain control. For cyclists, the challenge is part of the appeal, but for motorists — especially those in larger vehicles — delays and difficulties are so common, they are almost to be expected. Motoring experts compiled a survey of the worst routes for drivers across the UK, with Zig Zag Hill described as 'resembling a roller coaster' and named the 'bendiest one-mile stretch of road in the UK'. A spokesman for said: "We want motorists heading out on the road this summer to be well prepared and know what sort of roads they may be coming up against. These twisty roads are enough to incite fear in even the most experienced of drivers. Their sheer drops, sharp bends and uneven terrain should definitely be avoided where possible." For those brave enough to give it a go, Zig Zag Hill does offer stunning views over the Dorset and Wiltshire countryside when they get to the top. The road's alignment dates back to the 19th century, when it was constructed to avoid the deep ruts of ancient drovers' tracks. Its steep, winding course has remained largely unchanged, preserving both its historical character and its reputation as a formidable driving challenge. However, maintaining Zig Zag Hill is a significant challenge for the council. In 2019, the road required deep excavation and resurfacing due to the wear and tear caused by constant braking and tight cornering. The work was so extensive the road had to be closed around the clock for nearly two weeks, with all traffic diverted to surrounding routes. Zig Zag Hill is a unique and memorable part of the UK's road network, but its dangers are real and well-documented. Article continues below For many motorists, the advice is simple — it's safer to steer clear of Britain's bendiest road, especially when you don't have the weather on your side.

Keir Starmer urged to introduce stricter eyesight testing rules for all drivers
Experts are demanding new eyesight testing rules for drivers. Drivers may have to undergo eye tests to hold onto their licenses after Labour was ordered to introduce "mandatory vision checks' for all motorists, with older drivers told they should have to sit an eye test every three years. The Association of Optometrists (AOP) had previously claimed the current rules around road vision checks are 'out of step' and were in need of a review. Dr Peter Hampson, Optometrist and Clinical and Policy Director at the AOP, said they had been calling for tougher vision checks on UK roads. As it stands drivers are only required to self-certify they are safe to drive to hold onto their driving licence, and are not legally obliged to undertake any assessments. After similar remarks from the Older Drivers Forum and a leading coroner, the remarks pile more pressure on Sir Keir Starmer and the Government to react and change the rules. Speaking exclusively to the Express, Peter said: 'The UK system around drivers vision is out of step with many other countries who instead use a full sight test to ensure vision meets the standard. 'In fact, within Europe, we are one of only five countries that uses a numberplate test and only one of three countries to rely on self-reporting. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

'We have long called for mandatory vision checks at first licence application and at every renewal – every 10 years for most drivers, every three years for those over 70. 'With over 7,000 optometry practices nationwide, optometrists are well placed to support the delivery of these checks swiftly and effectively.' Dr James Adeley stressed the UK system was the 'worst in Europe" as he looked into the deaths of four pedestrians killed by older drivers. The Older Drivers Forum supports the introduction of compulsory eyesight checks to make sure road users getting behind the wheel are safe. They said: 'The Forum recommend that all drivers have an optician's eyesight test at least every 2 years. Nearly 90% of driving is visual and we need good vision to see hazards and react to them.' It was previously reported drivers who are aged 70 and over and have not renewed their licence are not 'legally allowed to drive', according to experts. That's because 90 days before drivers turn 70, they should receive a D46P application form from the DVLA. Age UK stated that if a person's drivers licence expires and they are unable to apply for a new one within the timeframe then they are not legally allowed to get behind the wheel. The charity states: "Don't forget to apply for any extra categories of vehicle covered on your old licence if you still want to be able to drive them.
