From the radio: a lorry hit a bridge between Hook Underpass and Esher Common, hence it and the A3 will be closed for a long time yet.

That must have happened last night. The road was already shut when I was out and about yesterday evening.

Wonder if that means damaged bridge > closed for days
or crash investigation > closed for the day ?

I don't think it was a road bridge , 'cause no other roads seem to be shut , but there is a foot bridge and a couple that I think are dedicated to farms in the area.

Remarkable coincedence that if the car was parked before the bridge , it would have been 50 yds from pikey scumbag camp sh*te.

Taxi home from Kingston anyone ? "Nah , it lets take that s car instead ,its cheaper." C**TS
ooops , the censor doesn't work on formatted text

Edit to say censor does work , perhaps if there is more than one its ok ?

There are cars dumped there or there abouts REGULARLY.

Any Bib want to comment on these "no go areas"?

Are they subject to the same laws as us ?

Further back , nearer Tolworth there is another "Christmas Tree Retail Park". Every Fri/Sat night they just drive home and torch it , right on the doorstep.
