Well I've seen it all today.

[Paul the 6th]

In birmingham a fazer nearly highsided himself whilst swerving over white markings down a slip road off a roundabout at the last minute.

A full 35 tonne articulated lorry on it's side on the m6 j3 on-slip-road with about 15 police/highways agency/other vehicles.

Then on the m1 a mini people carrier of some kind (think it was a zafira) sat in the fast lane pointing the wrong way. Must have just happened since the driver was in the front passenger seat on the phone and everyone was slowing down to about 30 mph and swerving round him at the last minute.

Then there was a guy on the phone (with phone in hand pressed to his ear) and a fag in the other hand = how was he steering?!

When I arrived in london just after the mega swiss cottage giratory, a pedestrian stepped out in front of a taxi without looking and got whacked at about 10 mph. The guy jumped up and started shouting at the cab driver, he retaliated with lots of colourful language before they both walked and drove off respectively.

Mental.

sounds like a typical day on the motorway lol

As long as you got there and back safely! Were you on the bike?

never seen it although I'd like to

and no, I was in my mondeo luckily think I might have been rubbed out at some point if I was on the bike (and I would have had great difficulty carrying: 2 laptops, a projector in its flightcase, an 8ft screen and a big bag of cables )

There are times where I consider the possibilities of joining the police service, doing 2 years probation and then applying to join the traffic division just to try and make a difference. Then I remember that politics will get in the way and I'd miss my weekends/normal working hours.

imagine that ad without all the warning signs and thats about the type of day I had.

And the other thing, when I'm out riding my brain inserts fictional signs like that everwhere to the point where I'm almost over-hesitant. Nice to see the adverts think a bit like i do
