Just speculating.... wrong I know.
But notice the car appears to have impacted, passenger side, and is at a bus stop??
Could it have **** ended a bus? Hitting the unforgiving engine.
Was foggy in places this morning and some SERIOUS arseholes driving on the M1 in the early hours.

Amazes me how people do not slow down when it's really foggy, heavy rain or slush on the roads ....they don't seem to quite appreciate how a car reacts under different road conditions

I was doing about 40 thru the SPECS due to the fog, was being overtaken by people at way over 100 easily.
The number of people driving with their full beam on, fogs when it was gone, broken headlights etc, I was going mental.
Done MK and back twice yesterday from South London, good journey, shame about the idiots on the roads.

lol the sat nav looked like it had chicken pox it had so many dots on it
Picked a mate up for the London Fireworks, took him home in the early hours
Im stunned year after year how poor the quality of driving on London's roads!
and the motorways of course.
Had a woman at about 8pm on the A406 by Brent Cross, come off the flyover, in the wrong lane, almost stop in the 3rd lane, then as I approached (with caution) from lane 2, just turn straight in front of me. Hard on horn, light on brakes, and she looked petrified....
If the roads scare you........... DONT DRIVE !

EXACTLY!! Heard the other day about some woman who has a driving phobia(?!).. she was stopped by police when driving on the motoway.. at 10mph! She was straddling the slow lane and hard shoulder on the M32, repeatedly jamming on the brakes... She even had a sign in the back saying 'I don't drive fast, please overtake' !!!
Back on topic.. I saw the pictures this morning and what a mess! Fatal accidents are never wished on anyone - particularly this time of year.
heard yesterday that a friends girlfriend died on the Thursday before Christmas in an accident. her car crossed the central reservation of a local by-pass and hit van going the other way. She died at the scene.
Terrible news for anyone to face

Hmmmmmm it's not suprising,i mean anyone can still pass a driving test and head out onto the motorway without having proved your a competent driver on high speed roads.see it all the time,alot of drivers dont even know how to enter a motorway correctly.they come on at 40mph and still brake slowing down even more,and the amount of accidents thats happening now..
