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.” ‘

Yeah I can see that at 20mph it would be so easy to drive into that bus stop.  That is such a difficult corner to drive around even in a supercar with pin-point accuracy steering.

It is also a well known fact that bus shelters on the B305 are notorious for stepping out into the middle of the road at 02:00 in the morning.  Spooky 🎃💀.

her husband saw the tractor driver quickly reattach his trailer and drive off

I wonder if this area suffers from the same problem we have here in Lancashire: tractors, trailers, other agricultural vehicles… have no need to bother with number plates because the police are too busy to bother with traffic law
