Garden wall damage by dangerous HIT and RUN driver. On Friday 16th at approx. 2.30 pm a corner of our Belleneden Rd front garden wall was knocked down by a grey couple.

A neigbour saw the tail end of the incident and reports that there were to people in the front of the car, one of whom was looking very distraught.Unfortunately the neighbour was unable to get the Registration no.


The grey car involved has to have been seriously damaged as the end pier was strenthened with metal


If you have very recently noticed a badly damaged grey coupe parked/abandoned could you please let me know, together with it@ Reg. No,


This was an act of very dangerous driving - someone cd have been badly hurt - the driver needs to be found

I have a tremor and find it impossible to put location of incident, however it happened Lidl's end of Bellenden Rd. The car cd be anywhere.


If you are fairly local did your CTV pick anything up of the getaway?


I wd be grateful if you wd circulate ..Thank you.

Hi there - I would try the shops near you as quite a few have external CCTV nowadays. Given you know the direction the car drove off and the exact time it happened I reckon you stand a good chance of catching the driver on camera.


Good luck!

Agreed, but do it soon as they may not keep the recording very long.


Good luck from me too!

Someone had done a google view of the area showing CCTV - gonna try those.

One on a lamp post so must be a council one? at a Junction that looks promising. cameras foccused on their shp front???

Wd still ask further afield as well as locally that if any one saw/ sees a badly damaged grey couple after 3.oo pm any where that they take a note of reg. no.

Thanks for ur input.

Wasn't far from two drivers racing each other yesterday on Norwood Road, mid evening. Never seen anything like it in London, well over 70mph and cms apart from each other and a parked van that I instinctively hid behind with my pushbike. But not practicing what I preach I have not yet reported it as it happened so fast I got no make, model of number plates. Racing on the public road is an offence.

Southwark Council has a CCTV manager. Try the main switchboard

Ah - you have seen the damage.

The speed bump has only just been er elongated... coupe must still have been going very fast.

Yep, Pier /gate post with tiling on it has steel re-inforcing so car must have been badly damaged and going far too fast. A Trevor on here kindly google mapped and found CCT cameras, have tried the council as one of thiers must have picked up it up - automated reply said to forward it to XXXX.. Police not being very helpful. I can't see how car can have got out of local area with out being caught by a camera. Have given up now, and handed whole thing over to insurance co. much as I woul like the driver to be punished for driving so dangerously

    • Contrasts with my experience at Health Matters last week  who took me straight to it with 3 different versions 
    • I went to get psyllium husk (which I pronounced very clearly and even pointed to my stomach, reflexively) but was taken by the assistant - whose face showed puzzlement for a few seconds - to the selenium section..! When I said it was not what I was looking for I had to explain what it’s used for and was then pointed to their product which was in tablet form - not what I was after. I’m much keener on places that know what’s what but at least I gave it a go…
    • The voters in these redwall seats all complain of a broken Britain etc etc - yet see no connection between the  country voting tory for 14 years and those towns voting for Brexit despite being warned it would lead to problems - they just moan about everything - often quite correctly (services are expensive or being cut, roads are a state, housing is expensive etc etc) but when you ask them when things were better.. well the answer is either    a) under a labour government when we part of the EU or b) some fictional Facebook sepia tinted picture of Britain "when you could leave your front door open, we didn't know how lucky we were" Voters say they want the truth but when someone sane (if dull and sometimes wrong) gets into power and says "lads, things are worse than we realised" they bleat about a lack of instant fixes and say it's wrong to keep blaming the last government (despite the lie about Labour crashing the economy in 2008 STILL being a stick labour get beaten with in 2025) as for rejoining the EU - the barriers are immense - you have a press and a large portion of teh population that will behave just abysmally. You have an electorate that recognises the mistake but is all very English and "made out beds, mustn't grumble" etc etc - no backbone. And you have an opposition party (or two) that is plain bonkers and when labour do lose power they would renege/reverse any progress made in matters EU in seconds Meanwhile EU countries can see all this clearly and have no incentive to engage until this country grows up and is able to demonstrate they won't act hysterically when reintegration starts
    • This is an extract from an edition with Dave Walker, mediator extraordinaire, born at the Elephant & Castle and still living in Southwark. One of his great achievements is training young people to be peer mediators ... who even step in to work with disputing adults! Just shows what can be achieved and who can achieve it. Pretty much anyone and everyone.  Next week we publish a special edition with Jo Berry who has very powerful story to tell. Further more, there was an invited audience of local people young and old, with whom she engaged in open discussion for an hour. Insights galore!
