Baerboxer Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 I use that road a lot. From about 9 pm till early hours there are numerous loonies driving too fast, weaving all over the 3 lanes and u-turns and generally appearing to lack full control of their vehicles. Especially bad at weekends of course. To be fair, the local police are very good and deal with the peak time rush hour traffic very well, especially as there are numerous schools on that road. But when night falls, so do the driving standards. Many bad accidents on that road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notasmartassknowitallfarag Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Phew there was no brake failure this time, although the sterring wheel must have jammed. On a serious note, no seat belts were wore hence why he ended up halfway across the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myself i would rather bet on the seatbelt and airbags than getting shot out of the car into something like a wall or post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
