A doctor was almost killed on a stretch of road he had warned Queanbeyan City Council about for years.

Queanbeyan's Dr Ross Bills was riding his motorbike on Uriarra Road when a car allegedly accelerated at speed from a driveway opposite his surgery and smashed into him.

He was catapulted over the highside of his motorbike and on to the ground. Apart from an estimated $8000 in damage to his motorbike, his injuries have cost him lost time at work and if an operation is required he could be away from his practice for two weeks.

“The eye witness said the bloke had sped out from the units opposite, come across the road and hit the bike and basically flattened it,” Dr Bills said.

“He powered out of there and obviously he has done it to beat the traffic,” he said. “This is an example of the lack of safety we've been going on about all along, it really confirms it.

“We've had I'm not sure how many near misses.

“We've had one male pedestrian knocked over.

“We've had one accident. We've had my accident, which was potentially fatal, [and] my wife was almost killed.

“I think it adds up to a fatality sooner or later.”

The trouble started with the construction of an 80 unit apartment complex built across from his surgery some four years ago.

Since construction started, a lack of car spaces immediately led to illegal parking, Mr Bills claimed.

This has created safety concerns for anyone attempting to exit his practice or the driveways of his neighbouring buildings.

“We had almost no problems until council approved the units over there,” Dr Bills said.

“They've got four visitor parks, they've got one disabled park provided. Council didn't insist on other arrangements.”

Adding to the parking woes was what he believed was a renege on the original design of the unit complex driveway.

“When they actually designed the exit it was supposed to allow entry in down hill and exit out down hill,” he said.
