The latest accident occured on Wednesday morning around 10.30am in wet conditions.
Ambulance and police attended the accident that held up traffic in both directions.
Locals and council workers also assisted immediatly after the accident.
Accidents typically occur at this spot when northbound vehicles stop to turn against traffic and right onto Centenary Drive.
Other vehicles then have to slam on the brakes as they come around corner to find the road blocked.
But in this case, police say the 34-year-old Bermagui female driver was heading north in her Toyota Landcruiser when despite going slow due to the rain, she lost control, went up the embankment and flipped over on her side. Investigations continue.
A post of the accident photo on the News’ Facebook came alive with comments, including several calling for an end to the right-turn option.
“I’ve been saying for years there should be no right turn there north bound. What’s it going to take someone losing their life! (Mayor) Lindsay Brown come on mate do something,” Tony Welling posted.
