    Long time reader of broadsheet, but with respect, turning a serious motorway crash into a “joke” competition is a crass move. You report that there are no injuries, but there could be serious trauma and shock for all of the driver, passengers and their family upon news of the crash. I would not like to see this kind of reportage and joke competition online, if one of my family was involved in a serious incident like this. I don’t think its acceptable and the article should be taken down from the website.

        Bodger,

        the “competition” is still there to “name those damaged jammers” ?

        Regards

      No surprise here. Bodger has put his ‘hilarious’ comedy headlines over articles about Russia bombing civilians in Ukraine. He’s edgy that way. He also seems to have a bit of a thing for posting car crashes.
      Its ironic considering the slow motion car crash that this site has become, an ever decreasing circle jerk of rght wing conspiracies, Alex jones fan boys, unknowing Quanon enthusiasts, and the frothing deranged (my personal favourite)
      I think most of the other people visting the site these days are just in for a gawp at the rabid loons.

      ‘If you don’t like it, you know where to go’, they screech when somebody with reason tries valiantly to stem the flow of horrible, dangerous, misinformed bilgewater.

    Looks bad but at least nobody was hurt.

    I’m glad I am still able to work a good bit of the week from home because it does feel like there a lot of anger and frustration among road users.

      I’d say there’s just a lot of pent up anger and frustration amongst the general population, livings ruined and in some cases savings has gone, marriages over and neurotic kids after two years of lockdowns, throw in the rising cost of everything, people are browned off.

      1. Ian - oG

        Indeed and I’d say it is going to go beyond browned off to full on rage for some people and I cannot blame them if they do.

        We were only saying the other day about how lucky we are that we still have access to an actual working fireplace and we’ve been stocking up on fuel for a while now. What are those who do not have such a facility to do in the event of gas shortages or power outages?

        There are so many issues like this coming down the line for people it’s very troubling.

          Ian I am desperately looking for a place with a fireplace before next winter, so far no dice

          For those without a fireplace, go get a gas heater (superser) and a few bottles.

          Also buy an inverter for your car and you have a ready made electricity source sitting in your driveway, just run a plug into the house. Once you keep it full of fuel.

          Although it’s summer soon, perfect time for us to use less energy. :)

            Can’t beat a superser in a pinch. Great for heating the kitchen on a chilly morning.

    One looks like a ford focus max, the other possible a bmw 3 series (a stretch seeing the damage).

      The silver one is definitely French.
      It’s got Renault written all over it.
      The French always did make ugly cars.
      Like their women.
      Give me a hefty Irish colleen with a grand bit of frontage any day.
      Marvellous™
