Title: Fifty Pence Five Pence Fifty Pence Five Pence
Post by: Del on Tuesday, 12 March 2019, 03:09 AM
that was my arse this morning - decided to leave the bike and take the car due to the inclement weather

Left my estate which was fun  :grin: in a rear wheel drive car - on the motorway no issues then was coming off at the junction I wanted and then OOOH FFS the road was black ice and I was looking out of the drivers side window - then the passenger side window as I slide through the traffic lights sideways (at least it was green) - managed to compose myself until the next corner going onto the Kingston bridge which was fairly slippery but manageable until I saw a Police car pirouetting off the slip road - Thank the heavens I left the bike  :notworthy:

Would have been interesting if a red light camera pictured you going sideways across the junction - reckon they would still book you if the light had been red !! :)

We get that over here Mike, down south anyway, can't recall if the north gets it - probably does in the shaded mountain areas, up round desert road & Turangi etc.
