****, that was a lucky escape by the peds on the crossing.

2:20, the other side of the crossing it kicks off. The smears on the
road give the end result away. How fast was he moving!?

Aproximately 10 times faster on the return journey than the outward
journey. I'd put it at at least 50mph, and the motorist close to
double that.

It's the lack of humanity by the other motorists which gets me - they
just drive around the carcass until the police stop them.

Perhaps they did not want to be in the middle of a road unprotected by
their usual heavy metal, having just seen that. Still, I think that
even I would have felt too ashamed not to go and at least stare more
closely and respectfully at the poor sod's remains.

That's humans for you, way back in the seventies I was traveling in
the stop-start traffic on Haverstock Hill when I saw a woman on the
pavement collapse, As I was stopped in the traffic I watched, people
were walking round her, just about stepping over her, nobody was the
slightest interested in her well being, I got out to check only to
discover she was dead, I stopped a community type ambulance going the
other way who pronounced her dead and called for a collection
ambulance. Other motorists in the queue behind me blared their horns
apparantly protesting at the delay.
