27 October (Part 1) - Well that didn’t take long did it?

The spanking new Abbey Wood station hasn't yet been open a week but already there has been a road traffic accident on the pedestrian crossing immediately outside it. Fortunately no ambulance in sight and maybe the location is just an unfortunate coincidence.

In my opinion it has to be the bus driver's fault. A 401 bus has no business being on the flyover. (†)

† It would appear that my little joke was misunderstood. An in service 401 bus would not normally be on the flyover. Bearing in mind that the bus is well within its lane and buses are too heavy to bounce very far, the likelihood must be that the car driver strayed into its path, perhaps while half asleep, and then bounced off the bus.
