A 13- YEAR-old boy was knocked over as he crossed the road in Selborne on Tuesday, adding fuel to local fears over increasing traffic problems in the village.
According to one resident, the stretch of road near Goslings Croft and running down to the school, was highlighted as a potential black spot. Only recently a lorry jack-knifed there, endangering the lives of local school children, and the side of a roof was taken off a building.
