An item on the website of Mix 96 a local commercial local radio station caught my eye this morning.
I'd probably have gasped and moved on to the next bit of news but for the fact I know the stretch of road reasonably well and would have been hard pressed to believe the report if there'd been no video. Bentley ploughs into pensioner's car at 85mph in Amersham From the Daily Mail... Quote:
There's no mention of when the collision took place but if the dashcam time stamp is correct it happened nearly four years ago only coming to court last October. Yet another unexplained oddity. Lastly, that Bentley will set you back £160,000 which is about $221,500. I expect that the driver's actions, assuming he was the owner, will have invalidated his insurance cover, if he had any, so that will have made his eyes water. BTW, the speed limit is 30mph at the crash site.

It was embedded in the Mix 96 report so gone from there as well. These things happen. ETA. It's found a new home here, but for how long?

What the hell are those things for anyway, trying to slow traffic?
At least they could create revenue with photo-radar boxes instead.

They were installed as a deterrent measure on the basis that when the bulk of through traffic is using the bypass, there is always somebody willing to cheat and drive through the town in the expectation of the road being more or less clear and would probably do so at excessive speed. To the trivia now... At the other end of the High Street is the Crown Hotel which is where scenes in Four Weddings and a Funeral were filmed and the Market Hall on the other side of the road has been used as a location in Midsomer Murders. Street View On second thoughts, delete 'trivia' and insert 'added value'.

The traffic cone storage makes it look especially appealing.
