Bit of a sore one this morning...

Passed it as it was getting loaded onto a truck.
Red Spider, rear wheel missing, airbags deployed, and some hefty damage to it !

It was at the roundabout heading from the A198 to the Bankton Junction on the A1.

Weird place to crash with that much damage, but hope the driver was/is ok.

I heard about that, my OH drove past it on here way into work, not long after it happened. She says it looked like it had hit the wall pretty hard.

Yeah, by the look of the marks, it hit the wall of the railway bridge !

Must have walloped it at a fair rate - looks like he's hit a kerb at once side and catapulted into the bridge at the other. Maybe changed down and gunned it. Could do with more lessons in that case scratchchin

I just wonder if it were approaching P.Seton and lost it on the long bend towards the roundabout, the centre of that road is full of crap, easy to throw a fast car offline !

That's what I thought - coming out of the dip at Blindwells and booted it up to the roundabout. A1 t*t

That would explain the number of police vehicles in the area at the time.

Particularly the one with 'Police Dogs' stamped on the side.

Wonder what his next insurance quote is going to look like?
