I went past on my way east this morning. Cyclist taken to hospital before I went by (9.30), bike well and truly mangled under the first set of back wheels, if that makes sense. Lorry was a big container type thing, not a 40-footer I don't think, but there was one attached to the cab, non-articulated, and then another container behind, but articulated. I took a photo on my phone but felt bad, so I haven't posted it. Big blue tent on the inside of the lorry. Spoke to a nice copper who was just standing around, the usual "I don't know anything" malarkey. Press were there, as were the road traffic investigation team. Fingers crossed, this is really starting to take the piss - two blokes hit by police cars in the last day or so, and now this. God knows what the driver was doing turning left down there though, Bellenden Rd is tiny for that size vehicle and doesn't really go anywhere except lidl - delivery driver possibly?
Take care everyone.
Edit - fat finger typing
