RTA at Dulwich Library

[Bic Basher]

Lordship Lane from the crossroads to Friern Road is closed as an RTA happened just outside the doctors surgery.

The Air Ambulance is in attendence.

Oh is that what it was. I saw a helicopter in the middle of the road and was very confused because it was a red virgin helicopter. For some reason I thought an air ambulance would look, well, like an ambulance. How sad. And do stay away if you can, the traffic is dreadful.

[Bic Basher]

Yeah the accident happened on the church side of the road. I couldn't see the person, but they were working on them on the road.
