Critical Literacy Question: Who is missing from the text?
Recently, many road users have been destroying their cars on a section on Woodmere Avenue in Watford. So many cars have been wrecking themselves that a 700-member Facebook group has been created to detail the destruction dealt by the concrete and bollards. A Watford Council spokesperson has said that the safety feature “does not meet the criteria for inclusion in our safety engineering programme”. Council Officers have interviewed local residents, spotting themselves at least one accident on the bollards.
The reader is shown the opinion of the Watford Council, but not of those involved in the accidents. I believe that this article should show the opinions of those who got into an accident on the width restriction, showing both sides of the story.
