Drove home via (or more accurately through) what looked like a really nasty accident tonight. It must have only just happened as the road was blocked and no Gardi were there yet. One car front was completely mangled. Looked like it had hit something head on. There was another car on the other side of the road further up and a mangled bike missing a wheel. Oddly the guy with a cycle helmet on was the only one who seemed with it enough to try and keep some traffic moving. So I've probably driven over all sorts of shrapnel. It's a bendy back road (often quicker than the dual carriageway home) between Stepaside and Enisskerry. What I think probably happened is that one of the cars was trying to overtake the bike on a dodgy corner and hit the other car head on and the bike got taken out in the fallout. No one seemed hurt though which was remarkable. I guess driving round those back roads, you can be as confident as you like on them but it only takes one idiot on the wrong side on a blind corner and you're in real trouble.
