I expect you've all seen this. Driver tweets about a collision.

Well she's learnt her lesson. From now on she won't use social media and will keep her indiscretions private, just like the rest of us.

and probably still think she's entitled to the road...

I would guess that they fear the integrity of the evidential chain.

Brilliant! I can now picture a CPS lawyer taking a look at a case and saying, disapprovingly, "Chain's slack."

It's a harsh lesson for sure Crax, it's not like she couldn't have learnt the lesson, there are folk apologising all the time for the nonsense they put out on twitter, facebook, etc., don't they all realise that anyone can see it and the trouble it can cause - how many friggin' times before it sinks in.

What a complete load of bull, she should sack whoever is helping her with PR as she is digging herself into a deeper hole.
Trying their best to spin the story to try and introduce reasonable doubt.

I can't understand why she "can't remember" her tweet ... if I had written something that had received that sort of reaction I'm sure it would be embossed onto the inside of my eyes, and that I would be able to repeat it word for word in sheer embarrassment!

"I felt his handlebar just clip my wing mirror and my initial reaction was to brake, stop and look in the mirror.

It sounds like she needs new brakes because the car definitely failed to stop. Or is she confusing herself with her idea of what a decent person would do?

Of course she can remember. She's just too embarrassed to come out with it on TV so she's telling porkies. Going to be a really credible testimony if she ever gets tried for the motoring offenses.

What is more astounding is that she (presumably) thinks people might possibly believe that she can't remember. What a pathetic interviewer to let her get away with it, or not read out what the tweet said. And why haven't her other tweets with the 95 mph etc been mentioned by either TV interview?
