Just seen this. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-16002888
No idea of the circumstances and don't know the area. Sad news, sorry to hear it, thoughts and condolences to all that knew her.

    Very sad. 16 deaths in London, not good.

    :( Certainly makes you think! Really sad.
  • I was cycling past there what must have been 2mins or less after the accident.

    I have been trying to put it out of my mind but I will never forget what I saw it was a truly harrowing scene.

    TfL needs to sort out Tower Bridge Road and the roads that lead onto it. She is neither the first and nor will she be the last unless they do something about it.

    RIP

    RIP. It's not a good junction. There's a little more info on here, including that the driver had been held by police. We shouldn't speculate but I would like to know what kind of lorry it was, simply so we can spot developing patterns.
