a million New Yorkers celebrated 2014 in the traditional way. There's | :00:00. | 3:59:59 | |
more throughout the evening A Grimsby mother whose son was | :00:00. | :00:11. | |
killed at a notorious accident blackspot near Lincoln says she's | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
unhappy at the lack of safety improvements at the junction. | :00:15. | :00:17. | |
Special Constable Scott Bennett died a year ago on the A46 at Dunholme | :00:18. | :00:20. | |
and his mother says she's still waiting for the authorities to do | :00:21. | :00:24. | |
something about the large number of crashes in the area. Amanda White | :00:25. | :00:27. | |
reports. Scott Bennett was working towards a | :00:28. | :00:31. | |
career in the police when his car collided with a lorry on the A46 | :00:32. | :00:36. | |
near Welton just over a year ago. He walked out of the door that morning | :00:37. | :00:44. | |
to go to his police training. He basically never walked back in it | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
again. You know, the devastation this road accident has caused has | :00:48. | :00:54. | |
just been absolutely phenomenal. ?? WHITE The tragedy was no surprise to | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
Graham Williamson, who has counted 400 accidents in his ten years at | :00:58. | :01:01. | |
the garage on the junction. All you hear is metal. It's frightening. | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
Seriously, something needs to be done, not later, something now. It | :01:05. | :01:11. | |
needs to be dealt with. There needs to be some sort of calming system. I | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
don't know. I don't know what to say, roundabout, traffic lights, | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
whatever. It needs to stop because people... There's going to be more | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
fatalities. One of the problems with this junction is once vehicles come | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
over the brow of this hill they are often travelling at speed and | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
downhill and it makes it very difficult to react to what's | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
happening at the junction. This is probably one of the worst junctions | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
we have in the county. We have vehicle activated signs, telling | :01:36. | :01:49. | |
people to slow down. Little or no notice is taken of those. We do need | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
something extra at this junction and we are looking at ideas for that. | :01:54. | :01:57. | |
Will the measures be enough for Scott's family? It is about time | :01:58. | :02:07. | |
somebody did something about it. You need to stand up and listen to the | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
people, to the residents of the area and actually do something about it. | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
How many more deaths do we have to have before somebody takes this on | :02:16. | :02:19. | |
board and actually thinks, yeah, we have got problem here? For now, | :02:20. | :02:22. | |
though, the safety of motorists here is very much in their own hands. | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
Five people have been arrested as part of a murder investigation in | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
Hull. A man, who's believed to be in his thirties, was found with serious | :02:31. | :02:33. | |
injuries near the City Centre at just after six o'clock this morning | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
and died in hospital. Four men and a woman are being questioned as part | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
of the investigation into the man's death. | :02:41. | :02:43. | |
It's been a mixed afternoon for our local football sides. In the Premier | :02:44. | :02:46. | |
League, Hull City lost by two goals to nil away against Liverpool. | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
Scunthorpe United are two points clear at the top of League Two after | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
they beat Rochdale 3`0 at Glanford Park. And in the Conference Grimsby | :02:55. | :02:58. | |
Town and Lincoln City drew a bad tempered game 1`1. Both sides had a | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
player sent off. Dozens of people braved the wind and | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
rain today today for the annual charity swim in the sea off Hornsea | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
in East Yorkshire. Hundreds also lined the shore to support them and | :03:09. | :03:11. | |
raise money for the local Inshore Rescue lifeboat team. Sarah Walton | :03:12. | :03:17. | |
reports. It was a Scottish piper that lead | :03:18. | :03:25. | |
swimmers to the sea this afternoon. Fitting for weather conditions more | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
suited to the highlands. Not that anyone seemed to mind. | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
Several hundred people turned up to support the dippers, but it wasn't | :03:34. | :03:36. | |
long before the wind and rain forced even the hardiest to retreat to the | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
lifeboat station for warmth. Good bit of fun on New Year's Day! | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
Get rid of a hangover. WITH AUSTRALIAN ACCENT: Freezing. A bit | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
different to Australia! I couldn't stand it. I went straight in and | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
then came straight out. It's a vital part of the community, is the | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
lifeboat, and for us all to do something like this, it's our chance | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
to put something back as well. And that effort is greatly appreciated. | :04:00. | :04:01. | |
We generally raise over ?1,000, which is awesome, so we're hoping | :04:02. | :04:04. | |
we've done the same today. Everyone's been putting their hands | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
in their pockets. I think even more so with the weather conditions being | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
so bad! It's so cold. But after a quick change and a cup of tea, most | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
said they will be back again next year. | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
Time for a look at the weather with Jennifer Bartram. Hello. Good | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
evening. January has got off to a fairly soggy start and we still have | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
a fair few showers to get through as we go through the night. Some of | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
these showers will be on the heavy side, perhaps producing a touch of | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
hail in places, but they will start to dissipate into the early hours of | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
tomorrow morning. Temperatures overnight getting down to around | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
five or six and staying fairly breezy. Dry to start with tomorrow | :04:44. | :04:46. | |

decent`looking day all in all. Temperatures tomorrow getting up to | :04:50. | :04:50. | |

the same old weather. Flood warnings are on the rise. The flood line | :05:21. | :05:27. | |
