Went past the accident site about 5.45 on my way home. Serious skid marks, lots of police markings, damage to the hedge/wall, etc... looks a hell of a mess.
Hope everyone was okay...

Thoughts to families involved....
BUT
No doubt others are thinking it and we talked about it in work, we do not need another speed limit on our roads! Driver education yes, just because people crash does not mean we need to slow everyone else down!

Hope both involved have a speedy recovery.

Maybe it's because i'm a Douglaser

Yeah found out who it was too & wish him a speedy recovery! Looks like a bad smash to walk away from (pics on front of manx independant).
I reject your reality & substitute my own..

You got a good point, but driver 'education' still doesn't improve one's 'driving IQ' unfortunately.
p.s as a sernior observer you should be able to tell us what speed that car lost control at! I'm sure we'd all like to know! lol YABBA DABBA DOO
