BSE has always been a very safe friendly place. Is the most likely explanation a tragic accident? The person in black passing the shop window looked to me as if it was a female, possibly with a bun/hair tied up carrying a rucksack. Could have been finishing work, possibly working illegally hence they might not want to come forward? I would be surprised if the bin lorry driver did not have a mobile phone, in event of an emergency/breakdowns etc. Did someone say the driver was an older man. I have read posts that say that the bin contents was incinerated so it didn't reach than landfill, I have also read online that the lorry did not get forensically tested for about two weeks after Corrie disappeared. Is it at all possible that this is a tragic accident and he did sleep in the bin to keep warm unaware that the bin was going to be collected. The driver possibly did not bother to look in the bin like he is meant to do. If Corrie had hitched a lift with the driver of the bin lorry and been dropped off midway the driver would have had no issue with confirming this. Had this happened it is possible that he perished trying to find his way home to base, fallen asleep etc but the driver would surely have confirmed he gave him a lift. I think this is a tragic accident. In Glasgow the bin lorry driver who ploughed into shoppers and killed a number of pedestrians had not declared medical problems that would have affected his HGV licence. All local authorities have now tightened up on medical requirements for bin lorry drivers but this company I believe is a private firm, not a Council one. If the bin lorry had not checked the bin that night before emptying it like he should have, could Corrie have died through being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
