    Running this one up the flagpole to see who salutes… 

    I just don’t remember this being a thing until recently, now it seems a daily occurrence.
    Could it be that there are drivers not up to the job, too many cars; should houses be made to ride in single file, shops put on high viz, why are we putting newer buildings in danger like this, it’s irresponsible.

    ‘A Dorset Police spokesperson said: “Dorset Police was called at 12.48pm on Thursday, August 13, to a report of a collision involving a car and a wall outside Iceland on Poole Road in Bournemouth.

    “It is reported that the vehicle was also in collision with a pedestrian, but they did not require medical treatment.” ‘

    Sorry the layout of this

    Sorry the layout of this thread has itself become a car crash. I have written to our new Editor, Mr Sexty to ask if they can disentangle the wreckage. I hope it’s not a write-off.

    why was the guy filming? 

    Looks like someone is videoing their CCTV camera (there’s a timestamp and “outside” shown at the top), so they most likely had the incident recorded and didn’t know how to get the video from their CCTV onto Twitter so just used their phone.

     CYCLIST GHOULS GLOAT OVER

     CYCLIST GHOULS GLOAT OVER INNOCENT DRIVERS’ MISFORTUNES 

    A sick-minded website ran by the cycling Stazi group “Cycling Embassy of Great Britain” has published a horrific collection pictures of car accident scenes – see pages 12,13, 14 and 16. Headlined “Audis in Houses”, the collection has been criticised for showing images where the Audi has not actually crashed into any building…

    My favourite is from March 2018 – the car has gone through someone’s window, but you can see the telly is still on – hope no lasting harm.
