Craig855S Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Mate from my home town phoned me up one night adn tells me he's totalled his car,and that he'd been drinking with his granddad earlier in the day. Said he mounted the central reservation on a flyover,hit a lamppost with the offside front corner which lifted the car up and onto its side sending it sliding along the flyover,with the wheel (complete with driveshaft and suspesion) bouncing away from the car. Had to climb out of the side window after failing to kick the windscreen through.

Craig855S Posted November 18, 2007 Author Share Posted November 18, 2007 wasnt breathalised but he had blood taken by the paramedics/hospital,that came back over the limit and he was banned for 12 months. He says he felt sober,and he only had a unit or 2 more than the limit so im not sure how he can mount the kerb on a dual carriageway but heyho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
