Morning all,

A long shot, but I thought I'd see if anyone knew what happened on the A3 yesterday afternoon?

Coming out of Guildford heading North, we had 2 police cars charge past, lights and sirens on full whack, and sure enough, traffic soon ground to a halt just after the small turnoff for Send & Ripley.

Again, no surprise to discover as we inched forward that there had been a pretty hefty smash on the southbound carriageway - 2 cars on the hard shoulder, lots of debris on both sides of the road - but on our side there were two police dogs about to be released as well as the police helicopter hovering overhead.

Presumably one of the drivers had done a runner, but the speed with which so many police cars reached the area did make me wonder whether they'd already been in pursuit when the crash happened or something?

Not sure about the Guildford area, but South of that around Petersfield apparantly a pig carcass fell off a lorry and caused mayhem for the whole evening!
