That was at 6am, so police have obviously been working on/at the scene.

mate at work was due in Salisbury for a site visit @ 8am this morning. he was sat on the A417 still at 9am. was sat there for over 2hrs.

I imagine it's going to take ages to clear the stretch of road before rush hour

The road is now clear. The Mrs had no problems coming back from Gloucester

With the power of maths I can work out your average speed. I'm the forums Carol Vorderman.

Talking of Countdown, given the impending work situation I fully recommend the bint who has replaced Carol. I would, then I would Vorderman too.

is that taking into account 5 miles in 40mph zone and the 3 miles off the a417 into swindon at 30mph

ironic that someone plans to drive like a cunt, after checking if a road is clear where someone else was driving like a cunt and killed someone.
people rush like fuck and put others in danger all the time.all for the sake of a few minutes

sort of still in touch with this thread, i saw a dead swan on the a419 coming home today. Now I have seen many creatures lying in pieces on the side of the carriageway, but a swan has never been one of them.

One can only imagine what sort of situation the swan must have been in to be hit by a car in the first place
