The drunk driver of GU17OBK smashed their car into the pedestrian crossing on Denmark Hill during the early morning rush hour.
There are 2 lanes each way on this road by the junction with Acland Cres, but they still managed to destroy the crossing.

A bike rider uses the pavement to avoid the pick up truck LP73ODM parked on the pavement and on double yellows.
The route is used by hundreds of school children. Why isn’t there a protected bike lane along here?

A @limebike was seen on the pavement yesterday.
In other news, a driver drove over the pavement on Adys Rd, mounting a bell bollard to stop drivers going on the pavement and flipping their car over.

Vehicles evading ANPR cameras (by covering their number plates) to drive down school streets are a common sight on the roads around Dulwich.
Where is the police action to arrest these illegal drivers?

Another driver ignores the many signs and drives through the new Dulwich Square
There is no traffic light for vehicles, so exiting he will be driving at cyclists turning in.
At least this one hasn’t covered his number plates and so should get a ticket from Southwark
