Was there something else on the road to cause the loss of grip?

I'm guessing so, but there was no safe way to go and check. I was at the spot for a further 5 mins and no one else had a problem. But it was still pouring down so i wonder if we hit a recent spill and the down pour washed it away.

I'm still hiding. I was busy crashing my car as it played over here. Got to get up to the house and download it from somewhere

Spending money I dont have!!!! Arghh.... I noticed my tyres on the car were a little low on tread, on very close inspection, I noticed that I could see the metal banding !!!! holy crap, I have never let a tyre get to the level of shitness..... how embarrassing..... (blush) Not to mention dangerous to me and any other road user around me (blush) I really could not see it, the wear was on the inside and without getting right under the car it was hard to see from just standing and looking.... shocking. (facepalm)

Anyway got two replacement tyres fitted ASAP.... (whew) (y)

Looking at some police photos from a serious accident.

They normally only send us copies of the photos with the bodies removed (tmi)

When the wife worked in the court system, she always recollects the photos she had to see showing a guy with an axe buried deep in his skull......put there by his son IIRC.
