Just stumbled across this

http://www.abbeyroad.com/visit/

watched for a minutes - amazed that no one's been run over even in that short time. People stand at the crossing waiting for the best time to walk across and have their picture taken - traffic sometimes stops, sometimes doesn't. Sometimes traffic stops but no one walks across - or they walk across REALLY slowly to the obvious annoyance of the motorist.

Addictive. A never ending stream of window lickers dicing with death in the face of locals who are clearly fed up to the back teeth with these idiots. I particularly like the way busses and taxis don't even pretend to slow down for the crossing when people are on it.

Just watched a family of 4 cross the time half a dozen times over 10 minutes in an effort to get 'that photo' just looked like idiots, nearly got run over a few times, they also looked confused by bicycles.

They can't, it's got the same protection as a listed building.

It's quite amusing watching a bus steam towards the cross as the fools who are standing there scatter out of the way. Bet it gets irritating if you use that road regularly during the day.

They don't really like moving for ambulances either, I've been through there on blues quite a few times and they just stand and stare at you while they get their photo's taken eek

Brilliant.

wkers to a man.

I live about half a mile from there and I use that road a lot.

They stand there doing fking Genesis poses, gurning at their fat stupid friends who are standing in the middle of the road a little further back waving their Cornflake box cameras around.

GET THE fk OUT OF MY WAY - ITS NOT THE SAME CROSSING ANYWAY YOU 'TARDS!

I'm not normally one to get annoyed at the little things in life but this sort of grade A tttery makes me mad beyond all reason.

People watching at it's best right there. It's like the human race is de-evolving right before my eyes.

Keep an eye on the feed for about the next 10 mins. I'll go and do a couple of laps.

OK.

Sideways into the junction after the crossing or it's not you!
