Also passed this (on foot) this morning.
Police were in the middle of a multi-million point turn to try to get it back on one side of the road or the other
I absolutely cannot get my head around how they could have got into that position in the first place though (either they were heading towards Brixton on the wrong side of the road or decided that junction was a decent spot to try to turn around, both of which are utterly bonkers)

It seems to be a Continental lorry, so there may perhaps have been an issue with which side to of the carriageway to drive on. Our right turn is their left turn, and perhaps the driver prepared to make a wide left turn before realising that wasn't too clever. That said, I have no idea why they would have wanted to drive down Loughborough Road.

Checked twitter for anything when I got in to work and could only see a couple of people talking about it. Was suggested on there that the lorry was trying to make a u-turn at the lights and just took one out instead. Not sure if that's just complete speculation though.

Lorry blocking all lanes of Brixton Road just out the front of Brixton Cycles. No idea how it came to be at this angle
