  • Spotted a woman driver being questioned by police just near the M&S there; propped up was a sky-blue folding bike and an ambulance at the scene, presumably dealing with someone in the back. This was probably around 7.45am.

    Hope all is ok.

  • Crashes are coming thick and fast at the moment, or perhaps they're just all being spotted. Hope it's not serious.

  • Visibility is getting worse quite quickly, and in poor weather drivers tend to look less for some reason.

    I hope everyone is ok.

  • To be far, some of the riders I'm seeing at the moment aren't doing themselves any favours.
    It's like someone just released another 1000 nodders onto my ride each morning - what happened?

    No mention of anything on twitter so I hope it's not another crash.

    Best get some new batteries in my lights, you're right, drivers are getting a bit lax for sure.

  • Steamed up windows is one to blame. well, drivers to blame really.

    Personally I am fanatical about cleaning the inside/outside of all windows, don't give a **** if the rest of the car looks like it crawled out of a swamp, but glass, has to be clean.
    See so many other drivers about even in very new (<1yr old) cars that can obviously not see out of them, yet popo do not bother fining/issuing points for it (they can v.easily, they have the power!).

  • i only clean my windows on dogging nights, the rest of time i like a bit of grime, obscures the 2008 tax disk

    its the same every year, people adjusting to the changes, i had three near misses last night on the way to football, first time all year
