Unplanned things that happen to expensive cars

I caused a bit of scene by taking the photos. The driver asked if I thought it was funny. She was so solemn and judgmental. As if I was photographing a dead child. I said "yes of course it's funny, and loads of people on twitter who see the photo will think its hilarious". This prompted anger and horror from a group of 15 men playing dominoes. Apparently I shouldn't laugh at a woman in a dangerous situation, the bollard was impossible to see, and I was a racist. I said the danger is to pedestrians when drivers don't look where they're going. The racism accusation was repeated lots. Somewhat challenging when you're the only white person outside Blacker Dread's old shop, pretty much the HQ of Afro-Caribbean culture before gentrification wrecked the community. I got a little intemperate. Attack the best form of defence. I shouted "if you don't think I'd laugh my head off at a white person driving into a bollard, you're a fucking idiot", with plenty of the index-finger-at-temple stupidity gesture. Then everyone lost interest. A most upsetting episode. I pass the domino players often. They're ten yards from my door. If I get more aggro I'll appeal to the elder statesman, a good friend who I helped when the police victimised him. He knows of two other black locals I helped when the police tried to stitch them up. Race relations here have suffered a lot since the gentrification explosion. White people are blamed, including the ones who aren't property owners.
