#1: Just had a big crash:NEW PICS Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Thu Jun 09, 2011 10:55 pm ---- Just had my first accident in 8 years of driving, on my way to work as normal on the lanes, went round a corner and seen signs for 10mph I was doing about 55mph at this time, the reason being for the 10mph signs is they are re-laying the road with stones, put my foot on the brake to slow down and the car reacted like it was on ice and started sliding sideways, I literally had no control, went into a ditch and smashed the front end up, I'll post pics when I'm sorted
And look who turned up 2 mins after the crash! Sweepers to get the stones off the road!!!
And a last parting shot

Ive hit that new layed stuff at 70 before and spent about a mile going sideyways before gaining control again. slippery stuff. Surely they should have put the signs a bit further up t'road. might be able to complain bout that one.

Least you were able to get out the car and walk away.
Any signs before the 10mph one?
#10: Re: Just had a big crash Author: DJ-, Location: UKPosted: Thu Jun 09, 2011 11:55 pm ---- did the airbag go off?
#11: Re: Just had a big crash Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Fri Jun 10, 2011 12:01 am ---- Passenger side airbag went off? And there were other signs for 40, when I seen the 10mph one I let go of the accelerator and was gonna coast til I got to a lower speed, but as soon as I hit the stones they were kicking up everywhere and I though fook that I clean this car way too much to be hit with stone chips so pressed the brakes, and the rest is history!! Gonna try and upload a quick pic now
