I always wondered if you drove up the barrier would you be able to get the car on two wheels and it looks like someone tried it!



Photo was taken last week on the Brentwood exit of M25 J28, a popular spot for traffic problems.

Ye gads, an accident in a car that CAN'T exceed the speedlimit.

How on earth are they going to explain that?

Never mind, I'm sure another scamera will sort it.

The driver of a 4x4 did this on the M62 at Rochdale a few weeks ago. The car had obviously ridden along the barrier like it was a railway line, then smashed into a concrete bridge pillar.

Just a little point but.....

"What about putting it into bloody reverse?, You know the gear you use the other time when your not looking where you're going"


Police Office - "I'm afraid I'm going to have to recommend euthanasia for you both."

Numpty - "...but I don't like rice pudding"

Having witnessed the across-the-board speed limit reductions in Surrey, yes, I conclude it's where they all go while they're waiting to die, now Sussex has got rough.

On a serious note, if the tram lines were active, is this more or less 'dangerous' than the bikers doing 157mph
Did the old numpty get charged with dangerous parking, or as he's obviously not be looking at the road, driving without due care and attention, if not why not, and I doubt it if he did 2 weeks down the block with big Frank

There was a numpty a couple of months back who went the wrong way down the M4

Got let off without charge even though there 3 accidents.



Remeber, speed kills. As he was going the wrong way down the motorway at 50 then it doesnt matter does it....

Would be, but they're not - trams all use overhead power for this very reason.

Edit: Oh, I took it to mean 'electrically live' rather than 'running'.. which did you mean.. ?

I meant it as is the 4.37pm Tram to the shops going to be bouncing into the front of the blokes Festa in 2 minutes
Obviously PC Dibble in the picture will be making sure it's warned about the 'obstruction' but if he wasn't there and the tram was due any minute it could be nasty

blimey, dangerous driving. Hope they all got 28 days with Bubba - cos it would be unfair otherwise.
