Mate, do you really need any one to answer this for you?

Two people died and you MAY assist in finding out how that happened.

Of course you should go and talk to the police.

Is it not bloody obvious??

You saw a black Merc 10 mins before.
The police want anyone who may have seen it to contact them.
People have died.

So, contact them??

You need to contact the Police so You can be eliminated.

Others may come forward telling of 2 Mercs together, then the Police will be looking for the Other Merc (you?) to eliminate you from enquiries.
Unless you were more involved than you say in which case they will find you anyway, as you have posted here.

For the Mail drivers back to be broken the Merc must have been moving pretty quick when it hit it.

So now the police will try and blame you for racing, ignore any time difference and have you up in court. Did you see the other thread about the guy that went to jail because the car behind him crashed?

I know they tried to blame me for a crash in 1989 that happened in front of me (that was from speaking to witnesses at the subsequent court case)

Get in touch and tell them you were there, BUT be careful what you tell them and how you tell them it happened because they'll happily charge you if you admit to excessive speed and blowing a red light.


Cheers,

Think about it this way.

If it was you working in your Royal Mail van and some pikey smashed into you so hard it broke your back, would you want someone who had seen them driving like wankers to come forward as a witness to the state of their driving???
Or would you be happy for it to possibly just be put down to an unfortunate accident?
If you were potentially parylised, would it be of any consolation to know it wasnt your fault?

If your friend/son/partner/ whatever had been killed in a crash-would you not want to know why?

You havent done anything wrong so whats going to incriminate you?

it'll be better if you go down yourself and tell them what happened. if someone else seen your car in the area and the police come looking for you it wont look so good.

Barry if it was me I'd keep my mouth shut and delete this fucking thread. Just don't go looking for trouble, else suddenly you were "racing" this Merc when the crash happened, thus get banged up inside for years.
