Wondering why drivers on the M6 can't get through a day without crashing.

Yet another crash this morning. That's 7 in a row for the times I've used the M6 going to work.

Because they're morons mostly in my experience, a better question would be why we have to share a road with lowlife like them.

Sorry, crabby mood this morning. (facepalm)

This. Then I can sleep or do my office work while it's driving me home from whatever far flung part of the U.K. I've been working in. :)

Ditto.

I have to say I fancy a go in one of the new teslas with the autopilot. Still too expensive but I'd love one I have to say. I'd always want a petrol car too but for day to day and long distance travel I bet they are ace :)

I might try and blag a test drive next year when I have some time. The charging points are spreading and you can charge 80% of the car in about 25 mins I think?

Still a 70k car that will be replaced by better tech every year at present though.. :(

I thought this post was about bikes not silly electric cars. Come on guys talking electric cars in a bike thread is sounding the GAY alarm.

Let's keep this on topic and take the gayNess out of the room (giggle)

Apologies for repeat picture but I knew it was popular the first time round :*

Put it on charge again last night. Think the week away drained it a little as although it started it was close.
