    Looks like someone became ill and lost control of the car.

    Usually that's heart attack or stroke.

    Whatever about the taxi/truck, kudos to you tedpan for being one of the very few (very few indeed), that joins the M1 northbound from the M50, and remains in Lane 1.

    Lane 1 is for the airport, the correct lane for exiting the M50 and heading North is the lane the truckers in

    It's either, look at the signs on the road.

    I know they're there but all previous signs show both left lanes as exits for m1/airport. Take a screen grab from the 2 second mark, it clearly has a picture of a plane with m1 North written below it.

    Not contradictory if you follow the signs, turn off from M50 to north has two lanes exiting, next sign tells you to get into left lane airport, right lane M1 North, not overly complex or complicated and plenty of distance to do it in.

    Anyways enough talk, left lane isn't for M1 North.

    They might be upset if they read that, plenty of that kind out there! :)

    Another one from this morning, you will need to watch it closely, hi-res and in full screen as the quality suffered upon uploading.

    Junction here, story about it here

    Maybe I'm not very observant but what exactly are you highlighting in that clip that relates to that tragic story? Referendum signs? Fog?

    Edit: Ah...just saw the name of the clip :o

    The fog makes it very difficult to see, plus youtube lost quality. A Passat flew straight through the stop signs. Lucky there was no one coming!

    Edit: I've uploaded the short part to GIF, should see the car a bit better now. Who does hi-res uploading!

    Looks like the driver "Stuart or Dad" had a medical issue and drifted into a parked care

    Note: Young kid in the back of the car, some may find it upsetting hearing them upset

    Guessing distracted by kid and not paying attention since he was fully aware after the crash

    The guy shouting Dad wasn't the driver and towards the end you can hear the driving making unintelligible noises (similar to stroke)
    Also at the beginning of the vid the driver and his son were chatting about how pain killers meant he couldn't "**** around" with his son and (presumably) grandchild

    Ahh right, didn't watch the first bit - that would do it, getting drowsy when they kicked in.

    Ok admittedly it may seem I held my rd, and it's certainly obvious he held his rd..
    I only held my rd because I had read the rd as I approached you, I certainly did NOT expect you to continue holding your rd as I passed(not far from your pedal)yet you had ample space to tip in even 12" to the exit of estate as I passed, but yet you let me pass you at considerable speed bearing in mind I had an oncoming car leaving me with sfa clearance and I still had to contend with you 'holding your rd' and not taking advantage of the HUGE clearance to your left!?

    I have deleted a whole raft of cyclist related crap. From now on I will just start handing out 24hr bans. People have been repeatedly warned about it. I am sick of seeing 2/3 pages of junk derailing this thread. Final warning bans will be handed out with no further warnings

    Would it be fair suggestion to put this warning in the first post so newcomers to the thread are made aware of it, otherwise it gets lost within a couple of weeks.
