Something is wrong with the driving test if

Apparently it's easily done.

One of our night trunker drivers was telling us that as he came of the M6 south at Catthorpe a truck drew level with him down the slip road. Well... As anyone who uses the A14 will tell you, The Slip road under the M1 goes into single lane for a short section.

The wagon next to him went onto the opposite lane (no dividing barrier) and turned right at the roundabout.. onto the westbound A14 !!

Good job it was silly O'clock in the morning.
 
That crash sounds like a strange one. Feel sorry for all the other innocent drivers that ended up being crashed into!
Ouch at 7hours down to the Lizard, these days I go down the A39 and don't get on the M5 until Bridgwater.

That crash was hideous. Poor guy in the RV that couldn't avoid him is probably scarred for life after his careless risk taking and high speed.

Hmm you live down here :p Where :eek:

The motorbike crash footage was uploaded to youtube at the request of his parents I believe as they wanted others to see the risks and consequences of actions on the road.
 
Those of you who find crash videos disturbing/upsetting might not want to watch.




I believe this video started at Newquay, and assuming it is unedited/trimmed the time from there to the Hayle roundabout is unreal.

I'm up Perranporth way. Usually see me around the Perranporth/Truro/Falmouth strip of Cornwall. :p

That video starts at Higher Tower Road in Newquay…looks like bits are trimmed. It is such a fast road from Newquay to the A30 dual carriageway.

Appalling riding between those two bikers. I assume the survivor got a couple of years in jail for his troubles as well?

This was one that happened a couple of years back in Aberdeen, young woman in that one as well, just passed her test.
