Gets more shocking every time new info comes out. Cyclist stopped for a coffee at the same hotel where the brothers were with a hunting party, presumably continues on his journey and is caught up and run over by the pair of c***s - then left for dead. Guessing quite often people turn a blind eye to drink driving in more rural areas. Hotel owner tried to persuade him to stay for the night, nice sentiment but on the other hand it's your drunk customers driving a few miles back home that end up killing him. Police work leaves a lot to be desired as well. They get a letter mentioning the twins as they were at the hotel that night, 6 months later they visit the estate but were asked to leave. The cyclist didn't make it to Tyndrum so the answers had to lie somewhere between there and the hotel.

Zetterlund Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 28 minutes ago, Derry Alli said: It's absolutely rife. Related story. Working on Tiree with a couple of colleagues, we went to one of the two pubs on the island for tea and a drink after work. Being responsible citizens, one of the guys said he'd drive and not drink, although in the end he had one pint with his food while me and the other guy had 2 or 3. The friendly barman advised us that the local policeman was off duty in the bar, just in case we had planned to have more drinks and drive back. Knowing that even one pint would likely put him over the limit, the workmate decided to not risk it and we all resigned ourselves to walking the 4 or 5 miles back to the house. After 15 minutes walking a car pulled over and a local offered us a lift, which we gladly accepted. It immediately become clear once in the car that he was completely sozzled and reeking of spirits, and a few times we had to remind him to keep his eyes on the road as he kept being distracted talking to us. At one point he veered off the road onto the soft verge, which he seemed to find hilarious. In short, our responsible and cautious approach to drink driving certainly was not shared by this local gentleman. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derry Alli Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 @Zetterlund, aye. Few times jve been on some of the Isles and the local police has been sitting cooked at the bar then you see them drive off and nobody bats an eyelid. Realistically, who could they tell? They'll just end up getting grief off them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soapy FFC Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 Driving through Milngavie yesterday and got stopped at traffic lights. There are 2 lanes at the lights, one for straight on, which I’m in, and one for turning right. I’m at the front and there are several cars behind, including one a couple of cars behind with his indicator on to turn right, but it’s still in the queue behind me as he hadn’t yet pulled out into the right turn lane. The lights change from red to green, I start to move, and a cyclist overtakes everyone to go straight on, including overtaking the car indicating he was turning red. There were no cars coming towards us, so the cyclist was lucky he wasn’t taken out by the car turning right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
