Driver’s fault, slammed straight into a large immobile object, so would’ve needed to be going too fast or not paying attention or both.
The neighbours complain about nearby low traffic schemes bringing more cars to their street, making it more dangerous. The tremendous irony of their acceptance that having more cars on a road is more dangerous…
Perhaps bike lockers should have reflectors or other night time aids.
