That’s awful - I really hope no one is seriously injured.

It might be worth updating the title so it clearly reflects what happened: a driver crashed into a pedestrian. The way we describe collisions matters, because it shapes how people understand responsibility and risk. If a cyclist hit someone, it would sound odd to say “bike hit pedestrian” without mentioning the rider - yet when cars are involved, the driver often disappears from the wording.

Using accurate language isn’t about blaming anyone before the facts are known; it’s simply about recognising that vehicles don’t act on their own. Drivers have agency, and it would be helpful if the wording reflected that.

Did anything actually crash into a pedestrian?

Hope they are ok if so.

I am also  quite confused about what actually happened and how it came about.

The police were there as I drove from Sainsburys - police car over took me at ED Station and by time I got to Co  op area they were taking notes. No ambulance seen.

Hopefully just the lamp post got the knock and is still in working order! fingers crossed.
