Accident on Sydenham Road
Police at Kirkdale this afternoon
Anyone know what was going on this afternoon? Firstly there was a policeman standing on the pedestrian crossing near The Pavilion and directing the passing traffic around him and later there was a sign directing traffic around the pavement edge. Then when I drove out of Spring Hill they had taped the area all off. I had to detour through Penge which was a pain.

Hit and run cyclist . A few years ago unthinkable, now not a surprise.
I do hope the gentleman recovers.

Like all the hit and run vehicle drivers.
