I reverse off my drive everyday , normally 1/2 am , pitch black & never a issue , owned the house for 20 yrs , today 7.30 am , light , and I’ve somehow reversed and hit the fence , it looks I’ve somehow thought the fence panel between two concrete posts was the exit from the drive , not the actual exit , you just stand there thinging how is this possible , god know what I was seeing .
Wife enjoyed it , he who never does any wrong comes a cropper , no doubt she will have it noted down for future reference , luckily it was the panel I caught , so bumper popped back in , bit of brown fence stain cleaned off , and a £36 new fence panel sorts the job , but I’m still think how did I do that !!

These thing start happening when you get older.

PH response - you're a threat to yourself and others, hand in your driving licence immediately, shouldn't be on the road etc.

A couple of months ago I was driving my discovery with cattle trailer out of our parking area and went straight into the side of a car that was driving down the private lane in front of our house.

Discovery was unaffected, but the A class needed a couple of new doors! I maintain they were going too fast, but it probably wouldn’t have stopped the incident.

I think I was concentrating on the trailer…
