I rode past the scene on Lambeth Bridge North side where the deceased and her 3 fur kids were struck down last weekend, blue tent was up and all roads leading to the roundabout was shut to motorised vehicles.
Seen the blue tent before and I was hoping for the best.
RIP.

This is one of the horror scenarios, when a car goes off the road, quite often in a motorway-like environment, and it's not noticed until much later, so that whoever may initially have survived a crash doesn't get help:
It happens along motorways from time to time. There have been cases in which there was no damage to crash barriers because a driver for some reason shot over them and their remains weren't discovered until months later.
RIP.

Having read various news reports, it's probably most likely that they were in this copse of trees:
It's really awful about this crash that the three who died could perhaps have been saved had they been discovered earlier.
It is very reminiscent of the crashes in rural areas of Europe in which disproportionately young people die who were or had been on nights out. I think these were worst in the 80s and 90s, but I haven't kept track of what has happened since.

RIP young folk, and wishing the other two a rapid recovery.
I was struck by the delay of nearly 48 between the crash and discovery, despite multiple early missing person reports.
Travelling after enjoying a night out seems hazardous...
