Sitting at lights at a junction today, the car in front of me stalled it and the person was flustered and stalled it again. Dude in a merc A class thing was having none of this, blared on this horn over and over then decided to take matters into his own hands, he shot off the wrong way down the road and blew the light which had went back red in the meantime, and was promptly t-boned by a mini. I've never seen an accident up close like this and the way the vehicle just lifted off the ground was jaw dropping. From what i gather his passenger (girlfriend) may not make it, as i had to give statements and heard one tpol say to another it looks bad for her. Why can't people just be bloody patient and consider others?

Hopefully she will live and you can help to jail the ****** or at least get him banned for a long time. Did the driver of the other car get injured badly?

The other driver walked away without a scratch, cars a complete writeoff but the occupant area looked totally untouched.

I think he is injured, may not be as bad. The girl was air lifted, he got an ambulance.

Couldn't give an exact location as i was passing through with Sat nav assistance (

) but it was in Croydon.

30mph, doubt the mini was doing that even as she would have obviously just started moving off on the lights though she was not the first car so would have built up a little speed.. The guys speed was not much if even over 30 as it was only 2 car lengths + distance to the middle of the junction before he got hit, though he did cane it hard to make it over.

No word from anyone, police, insurance companies or anything.

Really just want to find out if the girls ok tbh. I suppose i'd be hearing from them if she did pass on as it'd be a high priority case then eh? Maybe no news is good news!

Got a call from the insurance people a few days ago to verify some details and a crash investigator came to visit, he was tight lipped about a lot of things but did say there was no fatality or life changing damage to anyone, for that i am glad.
