Stupid women on the motorway :shock: :shock:
I've just watched on tv two women on tv run through traffic get knocked down then try to take on the rozzers :shock: :shock:
I've never seen anything so bizzar :-k
-
Watching it too... Total madness :shock:

You mean this?

Makes me wonder how people (not just women) end up being able to get anywhere near motorway traffic.
Had they abandoned their broken-down car ? Were they out for a Sunday stroll ? Have they jumped from a bridge ?
Some people haven't the brains they were born with. :evil:
I pity the poor souls that splatter the "jumpers" all over the road through no fault of their own. Imagine someone falling in front of you in the dark whilst you are doing motorway speeds !
No wonder the motorways are closed for hours when some idiot commits hari-kari by jumping in front of traffic. There must bits of body spread for miles !
-
Can't believe they survived that!!!
-
Just watched the clip... they had to be out of their heads on drugs to behave like that.
That poor trucker will have that on his mind whenever he drives.
I hope he gets over it and doesn't have to give up his livelyhood because of those two stupid smackheads.
-
They let them offf :evil: :evil:
after risking the lives of all them good people trying to help , and as said putting the poor trucker into shock the just walk away :evil: :evil: :evil:
Something is very wrong with this country [-X [-X

Totally right we have to keep the roads closed till the police finish their work and the environmental health people find all the bits of body. we even had a line of gritters in Lane 3 once to stop people in the other carriageway seeing the mess. I feel for the folk that are left to clean it up and only get abuse cause the motorway isn't open yet.

What the hell!
How on earth did they survive? why did they do it?
I really cannot understand why people do things like that and wonder how they manage to walk away from it even though they were actually wanting it to happen?
I personally was witness to a fatal when I was 14 but that was on a main road with a 30mph limit the pedestrian (I was the last person to speak to him) walked over the road thinking it was clear, traffic going out of the city was at a standstill but there was a car came up the road and hit the lad at 36mph killing him instantly, now how does someone run out in front of a truck doing motorway speeds...and live to tell the tale?
Is there something that says that if you mean to cause yourself damage or even kill yourself then you get a second chance, where as someone that was just trying to get over has to suffer?
-
Astounding! They must have been on something.
As already mentioned, a day in prison is a real deterrent. :roll:
-
Now Henry you shouldn't call all blonde women bimbo's, you mustn't tar everyone with the same brush - its the same as calling people thick who can't spell or write correctly but we don't do that, now do we?
-
Abolute, but extremely lucky nutters!
People who run into (or under) trucks rarely come out of it well, I know - I've seen them in the department, the unluckier ones scraped into body-bags, & on a Post Mortem table.
The other one suffered less injuries, because the car did what it was meant to, ie; crumple under impact
But, to still get up & jump over the central-reservation armco for another go, was unbelievable.
That'll get remembered until the Officers involved retire, sadly the truck driver (& car drivers) involved will too.
The male Officer said they were offered counselling after the event, would it have been offered to the drivers?
Astounding! They must have been on something.

L S-P, I'll hazard a guess that programme will be talked about in the Force, any chance of 'putting the feelers out' & finding out what they'd been ingesting/inhaling/injecting, as it didn't say.

it might of been speed as the way the was running they must of been on something
I've just been reading the comments about this episode on a couple of 'blogs'
A replier on PC Copperfields blog (http://coppersblog.blogspot.com/2008/09/just-in-case-you-missed-it.html) responds;
Right at the end of this programme we get to see one of the women's face. It shows all of the hallmarks of crack abuse.
That answers your question It also explains the super-human strength she exhibited after being run down, and then picking a fight with your colleagues.

I haven't heard anything through 'The Vine', but I'd suggest either speed or coke. Just another reason for the issue of tazer. A jolt off that to calm them down and then haul them out the way.
We were caled to a potential nasty one last night, car-V-pedal cyclist.
Cyclist, no lights or protective gear, cuts across in front of a car. I expected the worst, but was relieved to see minor cuts and bruises.
:shock:

We had a pedestrian delivered by air-ambulance the other day (it landed in the centre of one of the local towns, recently featured in a Channel 4 series about regeneration)
He'd been knocked down by a motorbike, & had a totally shattered Pelvis.
Not sure on the blace factor, but he's either unlucky or blind, as he said he'd been knocked down only 6 months prior :shock:
(& once before that too)

Sounds like that old Jasper Carrott insurance claim form thing he did!

Surely the officers involved would of had CS or Mace?
I was watching it and from the start they was clearly not going to be took easily so why did they not spray them to start with? could of made a difficult situation much easier even if they didn't have their spray why did they not just handcuff them.

It is always a difficult call to make. If they were 'coked' up, CS may not have had any effect. It doesn't work on everyone. I don't know about MACE/PAVA, I've never used it.
TASER would have been a good option if that had had it, as the electric jolt belts the nervous system and should not be affected by 'chemical additives'.
Handcuffs can be a swine to get on. I always hear scornful comments like "It takes six of you to take one person down". Yes, it does, to take control of the subject and situation. We have rules to stick by, our 'customers' don't.

Someone replying to my posting on 'Touring And Tenting' (http://www.touringandtenting.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=31359) offers a couple of (newspaper) links that suggesting that murder was also involved in this surreal situation
The name is the same

Now you can see why blonde women are called bim bows
I'd only assume at least they know how to spell it? :D

I'm still trying to get my head round what I've just watched on that BBC report! :shock:
Apart from all the issues already mentioned, just how much must that little episode have cost? Police Officers, Traffic Officers, Air Ambulance...plus all the other stuff going on behind the scenes with the emergency services... not to mention that, whilst they were trying to sort this out, they couldn't respond to other emergencies... motorway closed in both directions for however long it took to bring the situation under control... the list goes on! :twisted:
Unbelievable! :roll:
