Ferrari flips on M621
Discussion
To be fair I can see both sides. I was taking a track car on NS2Rs down the M621 for mapping at RS recently and hit the stream crossing the '621, it completely disconnected with the tarmac skimming across it whilst I quietly shat myself. I did see it coming so neither accelerated, nor decelerated but still it was a bit scary.
Having local knowledge does help and you do know that Westbound has many areas like this, particularly (and worst of all) the water rushes across just as 3 lanes go into 2 at the top and it goes into a right hander.
It's not the best design of motorway.
On my way back up there was a rarer flood across the carriageway and then a very crumpled looking barrier to the left of it so you can see what's happened. The tyres on that ^ have plenty of grooves, but also if whoever it was had their foot down it's oversteered off when it's hit the water.
