The separate issue of the vehicle hitting the lamppost is unresolved. No one either the police or yourselves seem able to state what exactly caused the incident.

I do not care who did it as this is a Data matter but what needs to be answered is whether this was a vehicle malfunction, a police chase or what?

These incidents do not occur often but over the years we have had two motor bikes clearing a fence, a car smashing into the wall of a house just after a Childrens Nursery

and now this. All and presumably this one exceeding the 40 mph speed limit which the Police and TFL seem reluctant to enforce.

I want to know that my wife, daughter and grandchildren can walk safe in the knowledge that barring a vehicle malfunction that loss of control by excess speed is not likely.

The traffic incident report is surely available in the public domain without identifying anybody?
