Was this mud through land slip, or was it residue off of a farm vehicle. Terrible article, no detail, were there accidents, was the road dangerous, well it was closed so presumably so, have people been hurt of vehicles damaged ????????????

Is Ellie Simmonds on work experience at the Mail? If not, this is a tardy piece of reporting - in fact, no reporting at all.

To be fair this is a traffic report not a news story. I'm not sure these should be in the 'news' section, but as such this report tells you what you need to know.

Is this really still breaking news eight hours after it was first put up? There can't be much happening in Oxfordshire if that is so...

Unlike East Anglia where it's all kicking off!

the problem started at approx 14.25 hrs on Monday, a very large tractor exited the field on the left just after the Land rover garage on the way into Oxford, leaving an absolute trail of mud and general field debris, no attempt was made to rectify this and the driver of the tractor proceeded away from the scene with no regard to the safety of other road users , especially two wheeled.I was on the other side of the road as he drove out onto the A420, i bet if we left tarmac scattered in the field there would be hell to play.
