Re: M1 today..
I've seen a few bad accidents in the last few weeks bish. Including a double decker bus fire and a lorry fire. Somethings going on, I think in the main its people thinking that having a big/fast car makes them a good driver in bad conditions.
Worst I've ever seen was 30 seconds after I'd been overtaken by a sports car doing about 3712 mph on the downhill stretch of the M62, in the rain. He'd skidded for about a mile, smashed up the central reservation, and then went off the barrier-less side into the moors. There was nowt left of the car. As in nothing but bits.

You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

Yep. 1 hour stationary.

Moi aussi, only after I'd finally got through that little lot (I was on my way to Stourbridge) they'd shut the M5 as well.Lord Kangana wrote:Yep. 1 hour stationary.

Well if you'd have continued on the m6 you'd have had a nice little 30 minute stop to add to that one after somebody span across all three lanes near Coventry.

The irony being, of course, that I heard about that and thought 'I'm glad I'm coming off for the M5'.Lord Kangana wrote:Well if you'd have continued on the m6 you'd have had a nice little 30 minute stop to add to that one after somebody span across all three lanes near Coventry.

Re: M1 today..
On the local news last night it appears 2 BMWs wre racing each other and they have both crashed. Survivors from the accident have allegedly then gotten out of the cars and proceeded to knock 7 bells out of each other.
What the feck?

Way I'm reading this is gang-related with one lot chasing the other. Might be wrong but that's how it looks.Gary the Enfield wrote:On the local news last night it appears 2 BMWs wre racing each other and they have both crashed.

I believe that a couple of young men were killed in Bury when their car hit a tree over the weekend. Turns out that the Police were pursuing them as they were driving with a frozen windscreen.

Bell ends racing each other, or bell ends chasing each other. Bell ends whichever.
That's not a leopard!

Re: M1 today..
Allegedly not... Supposedly all mates, the twatting was due to them causing the crash. Supposedly got out of the car and shouting how they'd killed them and then started to kick off.TANGODANCER wrote:Way I'm reading this is gang-related with one lot chasing the other.

Re: M1 today..
How did they kick off if they were dead? that's the bit that baffles me.
