EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a perilous scene from the past, showcasing the audacious act of people crossing a motorway in the north of England on the 8th of November 1974. In an era defined by its rebellious spirit and disregard for safety norms, this snapshot serves as a stark reminder of the dangers that lurked on Britain's roads during the 1970s. The image depicts pedestrians fearlessly navigating their way through treacherous traffic, defying all cautionary signs and risking their lives amidst speeding vehicles. The sheer audacity displayed by these individuals is both astonishing and concerning, highlighting a time when road safety was not given due importance. As we gaze upon this photograph today, it serves as a powerful testament to how far we have come in terms of transportation safety measures. It reminds us to appreciate the advancements made over decades to protect pedestrians and motorists alike. This historical relic prompts us to reflect on our responsibility towards ensuring safe passage for everyone on our roads. Varley's skillful capture immortalizes this dangerous moment forever etched in history. Through his lens, he encapsulates not only an alarming incident but also sparks conversations about road safety that are still relevant today.
