GleadlessLad Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Supertram have posted a photo of the incident on their Twitter site - looks like this happened at the Spring Lane tram stop. Seems apparent that a silver Vauxhall Vectra was stuck, with two wheels on the tram platform & two wheels on the road - with the underside of the car jammed on the concrete edge of the platform due to the height of the platform above the road level. As the OP said, the car's on the wrong side of the road too! I too am wondering how on earth this happened? In a similar vein a badly smashed up Astra's been abandoned on the grass verge at the Hollinsend Rd / Ridgeway Rd crossroads for nearly a week now - it's badly damaged on both sides, looks like it's been hit at the crossroads & shoved sideways into the railings. One door's been ripped open leaving jagged metal exposed, one window & two tyres have gone too. Seems to be an accident at that junction every couple of weeks or so - anyone with a bit of time to spare to watch the traffic will see that many drivers appear to treat the red lights as "optional" there!

The Joker Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Link to the photo here: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CEE8iWcWgAAgy3y.jpg:large I'm baffled. Brilliant! A vector some how has managed to be half way up the tram stop on the wrong side of the road towards Manor Top which has caused problems on the trams. My question is how can someone go so wrong I see you meant Vectra - you did have me confused until I saw the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vegas1 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 So many errors in the opening post: a "vector" and also the wrong location. Can someone get it fixed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOLBROO Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 (edited) Link to the photo here: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CEE8iWcWgAAgy3y.jpg:large I'm baffled. Simple really. This is at least the third one that's done this including a police car. Coming too fast down City Road to take the bend onto Spring Lane. At the far end of the tram stop (on the photo) the kerb is only at normal height. He/She might have been braking but once the car is on the high part it's sliding on its underside. By the way the police car was in pursuit of another car which managed to take the bend.
