Blocked up Bedford

Lots of people in bedford are going to be very late for work today: there appears to have been a rather bad accident, right at one of the busiest road junctions, on one of the two routes heading East out of town. I was lucky - I was going in the opposite direction, so drove past the police cars blocking the road and the two ambulances treating people. The cars trying to get out of town were tailed back for miles in each direction from the junction, though - and no hope of moving for quite a while! I have to admit I felt a little smug as I sailed past them all. But then I remembered the person on the stretcher... hope no one was hurt too badly.
