I dont think asking 'can I walk over the bridge officer?' at 1am is out of order.

I have to agree with you there what stupid answer walk via mather lane at that time

i meant "response" to the incident, NOT what they said to you

Every fatal Road Traffic Accident is now treated as a 'murder' incident.

Fair do's

I think Starbug was refering to the cars that turned up a long time after the incident and just parked up and did nothing. There was 2 vans 2 motorbikes, an ambulance and about 8 Police cars.

As a Police Officer, it would appear that the ones questioning the Police's actions have no idea about investigating a crime scene.

Oweing to the fact that it was a tragic fatal road traffic incident, there are all manner of people that need to attend the scene.

The initial response officers, traffic patrols, senior investigating officers, cid, collision reconstruction unit, further officers to help maintain a sterile cordon so the matter can be investigated thoroughly, to name but a few.

All these people will be coming from different places and distances, thus the time it takes to get there. The collision reconstruction unit for instance, investigate serious and fatal accidents, they are massively important in securing convictions and explaining what has happened at the scene. The officer will have been on call and will have had to then make his way to the scene.

We must not forget that this is a tragedy for all concerned and the Police will do their upmost to investigate the matter.

that was not the only bad smash in leigh last night there was one on wigan rd
