Hi all,
I'm new on here so im rummaging around and trying to find topics i can post in with relevance.
Anyway I had two bikes stolen Wednesday 24th June so I was back on London Transport last week and this week and my journey to work is from Camberwell to Battersea - I go thru Oval to get to Vauxhall.
I was on a bus and just as we were approaching Oval the traffic stopped for a period of over 10mins then the driver was informed of the accident up ahead so he opened the doors to let us off so we could get on with our journey to work.
Unfortunately my only option from the bus was to walk to Oval and get a train to Vauxhall and when I reached Oval I did not like what I saw - Loads of police, ambulance and fire brigade.
It is one of many accidents I have seen as Cyclist and Pedestrian but one thing that is weird... it does not put me off Cycling one bit but it does make me more aware of other idiots on the road...
Hope people come forward so the HGV driver may get prosecuted...
