Dave C Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 My 1st crash in 19 years of driving Happend two weeks ago on the M1 southbound,in the contraflow. A driver of a 7 ½ ton was heading north,in the outside lane,hanging out his window shouting abuse at the driver in front.But in doing so,was crashing into the temporary barriers,pushing them across the road. The driver in front of me slammed on the brakes,I littrally just stopped in time.but the driver of the transit didnt notice we'd stopped,& hit me at 50,pushing me into the van in front . End result,my van possibly being written off,due to both end damge.. I only had it 6 weeks.. Good thing is, the police cought the driver of the ½ ton on cctv,& being done for dangerous driving... http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e271/More-E-Vicar/DSC00069.jpghttp://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e271/More-E-Vicar/DSC00068.jpghttp://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e271/More-E-Vicar/DSC00067.jpghttp://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e271/More-E-Vicar/DSC00066.jpghttp://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e271/More-E-Vicar/DSC00065.jpghttp://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e271/More-E-Vicar/DSC00064.jpghttp://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e271/More-E-Vicar/DSC00063.jpg Left the ford badge inprint in the back door http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e271/More-E-Vicar/DSC00062.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
