UNABASHED Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 I was coming home from Wales in my zed today when a scooby kept passing me and slowing down. We both entered a 50mph average speed check side by side and when it turned to 70mph we both took off, I chickened out of going too fast and he sped ahead and moved into my lane ahead of me. As he kept speeding up there was a bang and white and black smoke billowed from front of his car, then half his front bumper came off and a metre long pipe burst under his car damaging his tyres in process. Luckily I managed to avoid the debris and give him a little wave as he limped into the hard shoulder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Husky Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 had people zoom past before only to find them on the side of the road further ahead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geoff-r Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 You'd have to have a chuckle. By the sounds of it no one was hurt, that's the main thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spursmaddave Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 I had a BMW right up my chuff the other day and when the road went to dual carriageway he shot off... A couple of miles later I spotted him in a layby getting a ticking off from a traffic cop I gave him the internationally recognised sign for such an occurrence Best thing was he was a classic Beemer driver, bluetooth headset, shirt & tie, sunglasses etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
