The guy on the bike seems to have moved backwards in time from photo 1 to photo 2 -- calibrated against the bald guy moving forward in time.

Perhaps it was caused by a rift in the space-time continuum? :confused:
 
what you all seem to have missed due to the angle of the photos is the front wheel on the right (with the car upsdie down technically the offside or left hand wheel) has come free of it's steering rack... along with the courner tap and the missing rear light. just visable from behind the guys head now this could have been lost in the the roll but there is no visable damage to the side of the car meaning that it would have to have pvitoed on that entire area which is impossible...

so how'd it happen?

the car on the far left of the picture was going too fast and hit the car on it's roof in the rear courner either the blue car breaked suddenly or the driver of the black car didn't anticpate correctly and just rammed the blue car.

The blue car then bounced into the bmw and broke it's front wheel which then pushed the car over on to its roof.

if i were to hazard a guess as to why it flipped after bouncing into the bmw then i'd say the foot came off the break and hit the acceleorator the fact the car behind didn't skid means that there was liekly to be soem speed involved...
 
I immediately rang the police/ambulance and they were there very fast indeed - the first police car was there in less than 30 seconds


Yeah, but they didn't have far to come did they

Still impressive though

Oh I thought most major incidents could be solved by a few evenings musing in the pub and the technical resources of Google. ;) No?

But it's fun trying.

I reckon Garfield is right. QED.

I disagree.


If you look carefully at the area near the back front left of the right far near car, you can clearly see the shadow of the second plane.


:mad:

ok who said you could in order that you'd post this toss up ?

i might have know you'd turn up...

well in which case it's clearly the fault of the police the blue (clio?) emergancy stoppped after a copper ran out chasing a black youth with the intent of raciall assualting them for beign a jonny forginer. The bmw full of drug dealers and crack addicts attempted a high speed reversse trick to swign it round to pick up their runnning colluge and hit the clio the car behind to evasive action cutting the police officer off from their quarry the blue car flips yet again weh have established from the images it was the polices fault.... ACAB etc... :rolleyes: muppet...

See as the cops took a leisurely 15+ minutes to reach me when I got attacked just a few yards down the road - and I had the perps in sight with an eye witness ready and willing to testify - their response was nothing short of amazing!

I have to say that the entire emergency services did a grand job yesterday. They were fast and professional.

no offense to you but there's a bit of a difference from what might apear to e a drunken brawl and car on its roof in terms of priorities...

Yes, but you getting attacked isn't going to hold traffic up is it ;)

Nah -- there's absolutely no way the police could tell.

Us normal people have plenty of ideas.

A faulty flux capacitor's surely to blame.

It's the spare.

You edited that while I was looking for a photo. :)

It's even worse while the firemen are righting it. The front wheels are both pointing out at 45 degreesish.

It's not.

Look at the front wheels of the blue car.

One is pointing straight on the other is pointing towards the BMW.
I'm not sure what point is being debated here, but the upended car definitely still had all its wheels on, as did the BMW.

I thought they meant the wheel had come off, but I see the point now. The front wheel's bust - obviously they should be parallel.

Actually, you twat, it was you, with this post, which prompted me to post what I did. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
 
The front wheels def look boss-eyed, well the opposite actually . . .

That's blossom on the bonnet and roof of the Skoda, init (someone thought it was shattered glass) ? A lot of that in residential streets around here. Anyways, windscreens don't shatter these days.

My money's on an invisible force field.
I suspect it's a space-time continuim issue; the car was supposed to overturn avoiding the bus that crashed ino the corner shop and scaffolding a couple of weeks ago. This kind of time lapse dyfunction is often rooted in a slight inconsistency in the molecular shape of the ambient wall. It is self-correcting.

It was fucking huge for one person whatever it was.
It's a Skoda Octavia Estate. I had one of those without the big boot. It's just a normal size family car :)
