Crash Course In Trolley Collection

We've already talked about how abandoned shopping trolleys are dangerous - and would it seem to Coles is about to learn how expensive it is. This story is from October 15, 2008:

A BAYSWATER man is considering suing a giant supermarket chain after a car crash he believes was caused by a stray trolley left on a road at night.

The man says he has suffered continuing health problems since the accident.

His complaint comes in the wake of an outpouring of anger from Knox residents, upset over trolleys left dumped in their streets.

Craig Davies and a work colleague were travelling to the city for a business meeting at 7.30pm on June 25 when he suddenly saw a shopping trolley in the left lane of busy Burwood Highway.

Mr Davies said he swerved to avoid the trolley, smashing into the car in front of him, which in turn crashed into the car in front of it.
