This might sound defeatist to some. I think that in places like London and many, many other parts of England you are going to see incidents like this on account of the population density, the over-reliance on cars, and road system itself which was never originally designed for anything other than horse-drive carriages.
It's only by virtue of that English sense of fair play that you do not see a LOT more people injured and killed.
But what concerns me most here is the blinkered view from some politicians and industrials, all of whom assume that we have some kind of obligation to accept millions more people living in this small country. Most of this increase being down to immigration and natural births (the latter being used to conceal the number of people being born on religious and cultural grounds).
Even with the best intention, we are over capacity. We shouldn't keep ripping up what's left to house even more people whilst fearing being branded racist or xenophobic just for using our common sense. The same is happening in the US, it's the politicians, the industrialists and much of the mainstream media who are behind this surge and every single country it happens there are is irreversible damage.
I often hate commuting in London for this reason..you literally have to have eyes everywhere and anything goes. If I wanted to live like this I'd move to some third-world slum and that's exactly where we are heading. Very quickly.
