A day to be v. v. careful

Post by saggs » Sat Nov 11, 2006 3:25 pm

Anyone else get instructed by a cyclist on the road East out of knockhill to do a u-turn because of an accident further down the road? Hope it wasn't too serious, could see the back of a silver Elise just out of sight. I must have been there only a minute or so after it happened.

About 20 mins later was on the S.Queensferry to Boness road and was literally seconds behind a very hefty side impact at the M9 junction near Philipstoun.

Decided from there on to get home as slowly and carefully as possible. Hope everyone else got home safely too.

Hope no se`ers were involved in any accident.... :?

Journey up wasnt much fun on 48s with the standing water on m74/a80.

Journey home was better, after today I am very glad of changing the 48s for 39s.

I'm not sure who it was but there was one very sad looking Elise involved in the accident just along from KH :cry:

I really hope whoever was involved is OK and hopefully it looked worse than it actually was.

Not sure what happened but I headed that way and spoke to shoomer who had Greg following. They'd asked the police if it was a Lotus and they said it wasn't but they were waiting on an ambulance to arrive. Hope it wasn't anyone on here and hope it wasn't serious whoever it was.

It must have happened just behind me as I never saw it but did see an ambulance flying along with its lights on shortly after leaving Knockhill. I hope everyone is all right.

aye I'm sure that's who it was, I'm sorry I was useless when I returned to KH and told you all about it, I'm soooo bloody bad at remembering names.

From what I could see the car was a complete mess but I'm sure I could see him talking to the police so fingers crossed he and everyone else involved is OK.

Yeah, fair enough assumption. Blaque and myself were the only two titaniums there today I think.

What a crazy couple of days. Today there was something like 8 crashes between glasgow city & the airport! We nearly lost one of our colleagues at work last night; he collapsed at the airport with a heart attack. If it was not for the fact he was surrounded by Doctors here for a medical conference, he would bo longer he with us :shock: . He is making a good recovery.

Take it easy guys & gals.

I hope everyone is okay after today's incidents.
