Roger, just to clarify both accidents have occoured in daytime with good light so haven't had lights on, I'm now putting my main beam up at night rather than the dipped and other cars, whilst they can't see me can see my beam. So haven't even come close to a near miss at night or in low light conditions.
The turn is effectively an inverted 'U' with an internal radius of approx 5-10 metres so is a very tight turn. most traffic tends to take it at 5-10mph, those that cut the corner tend to accelerate up to the corner and brake hard so they exit at about 5-10mph.
Both drivers were convinced that they were safe as they were within the limit.
The second driver initally refused to give details and only when I told him that I would be contacting the police did he pass details over. Have heard from our fleet company that the he was contesting liability saying that I was on the wrong side of the road, they have pointed out that the damage isn't consistant with that and also I took photos just after the accident which clearly shows both car on the same side of the road.
The map circle is on the bend I'm describing
Location the map is a little out of date as the road does extend beyond that point.
