Sorry to be the bearer of bad news folks but just around the corner from here, a 16yr old kid on a bike was hit by a car this morning which threw him into the path of a lorry. i heard the road was closed on the radio but it wasn't till i got home, that Sarah told me what had happened, she fould out via the S11 group / nosey neighbours app.

This is just up the road from the buddhist center where you stop over @Guinessisgoodforyou .. the air ambulance landed in Endcliffe park, he's currently fighting for his life in hospital so keep your fingers crossed for the young lad.

That's horrendous, I hope he pulls through.
 
The visceral I read via the missus FB link regarding the involvement of any person riding a bicycle IN A RTC beggars belief.

People seemed to of forgotten their acts and omissions have consequences especially when their are driving a motor vehicle of any type.

A couple of weeks back a morning show on the box interviewed a member of a family who's father had been killed a a driver using a mobile phone.

It the end the person conducting said interview said " iam sure WE ALL LOOK AT OUR PHONES WHEN WAITING AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS "

WELL MOST OF US DON'T.
THIS SELF JUSTSICATION REALLY PISSES ME OFF. BBC TAKE NOTE .

I WISH THE LAD / LASSY A SPEEDY RECOVERY.

The poor boy, being hit with a car is bad enough but if that truck hit him I fear there will be severe life altering injuries for him.
His family must be distraught.

about 2 years ago one of the guys from our warehouse was hit by a truck like that outside our unit despite wearing his Hi-Vis vest.
And sadly despite his steel toecaps his foot was completely destroyed in the process, he was medically retired by the city about 6 months ago
