I have just read a distresting article on BBC news site for Wiltshire. A three wheel Morgan involved in an accident with a lorry between junctions 16 and 17. That is Swindon West and Chippenham.

Of course, I didn’t put the two together because the reports says crashed into a lorry, and Ian’s post didn’t mention Gerald was in his Mog I’m guessing the News media assumed it was a crash unless the policeman that spoke to Ian didn’t want to reveal the full circumstance of the tragedy

That would explain a comment from someone on a factory tour yesterday. He had seen a damaged 3W on the M4 while on his way to MMC. Last night I had a feeling that Ian and Maria's post would likely coincide with said sighting. I figured the Traffic Officer's comments would have to be carefully worded. Very sad...

Yes Paul, I had read the beginning of that thread last night. With a little more time this evening I have had a chance to add a post.
