2013-02-13 - Rider(s) Down, Kennington Road

Posted on
  • Passed by the aftermath of a collision on Kennington Road just outside the Tesco Express at about 9:10am. I didn't see what actually happened but it looked like a collision between a cycle and a motorcycle / scooter in the bus lane, as both machines were lying in the road.

    Didn't see the rider of the M2W so I guess he must have been on his feet and reasonably ok. The cyclist was a young blonde lady with a white Specialized bike with a Crud Catcher attached. I think she was wearing a pink hi-vis jacket and a white helmet with a coloured buff underneath. She was still lying in the road as I came to the scene and bleeding from the mouth, but she was conscious and able to talk to a passer-by while the ambulance was called.

    I didn't stick around as I didn't actually see anything and there were loads of witnesses and people to look after her so didn't want to crowd in. Hope she heals up ok and gets her cycling confidence back.
