A mate of mine had a little accident the other day and crashed his m5.
Pics are a bit poor but thought i would share.
One of the boys saw the second picture and said to close the boot or he may get a flat battery ........needles to say he then got his coat

Apparently he hit a flooded part of the road aquaplaned loosing the rear end and the rest was history after rolling a few times.He walked away unscratched...apart from the nettle sting he recieved climing out of the car

goes to show that these bm's are pretty solid in the unfortunate event of an accident.

I don't think T-Cut will help much either! Lucky to walk away though.

Not wishing to cast nasturshams an all that, but methinks he might have been going a tad too fast for the prevailing conditions, especially if it rolled more than once. Even so, still very lucky and just shows how well modern cars are built.

What does that mean!

Someone give me a diary! Google couldn't even tell me what that was - except a flower!

It's Friday night, long words not allowed!

Mitch glad mate is OK, shame about the car. Any bits we can rip off it!

Did he forget to turn the car off when he got out
As all the cars I've seen upside down have still been running ?
Did the air bags go off?

How will a diary help ? Why knowing what day it was help you know what the word meant
