Thank you jainy. Who the hell cares how long it took you to get home? Or what the fella was doing there in the first place. Someone lost their life yesterday. How on earth would you feel if it was your brother, your dad and you found out someone on a website was complaining how long it took them to get home??

I know it must have been the most frustrating thng ever sitting for 4 hours and it should have been controlled better by the police, but some degree of sensitivity is needed. No?

Well said Sian, even people not involved will still be shaken up as it was so close to home for some of us.

I'd still ask what the hell they were doing walking on a motorway.

Apparently, he jumped off the bridge. But that is still being investigated.

I was in a mates house yesterday with all his family in the kitchen with me waiting on dinner and they were talking about this and said "what would you do if that person just landed on your car and went *splat* ?" and immediately just through instinct or whatever I came up with "take out your camera phone and take a picture before the blood drys..."



No - one laughed... Then I felt bad because it was an awful thing to say due to it only happening like 4 hours before hand.

take out your camera phone and take a picture before the blood drys...

Would there be any blood to you think?
I guess it would depend on what size the vertical drop is....
I think we should carry out a case study.
