Mind The Gap (really)

Forget about pickpockets, muggers, or football hooligans, visitors to London have a scarier prospect to look out for: exploding pavements. The UK Health and Safety Executive has revealed that 12 “under-pavement” explosions have occurred during the first half of 2013 alone. The video below shows an eruption that blew-up on Pimlico Road near Victoria Station on April 26th. It may be safer for pedestrians to just walk in the road.
