Not on mine but SWMBO,s Mundano, she chose the little used back lane to go to the station. Road blocked by two vans in the ditch, she reversed without looking, straight in and then onto the snow drift beaching it. Tearful phone call to me had me having to leave work to go and dig it out.
Mind you, the local farmer was well pissed. He tried to drive past with his Manituo telescopic fork lift and put that into the ditch
.
Local marine unit police helped us get it out as it was truly beached. They had a Land Rover with only one diff working

I seem to remember that a mate who had a drink drive ban, got his licence back early by signing up for an alcohol awareness course.
He was blood tested as well to check he was keeping his word

Omega General Help / Re: Snow performance
« on: 01 March 2018, 10:30:33 »
I was mightily impressed with my Omega auto estate when we had a lot of snow and -15c here in Essex a few years back. unless provoked, it handled everything with no dramas. Didn't think I would have stood any chance with some of the hills I had to go up but not a slip or slid at all.

Attempted to get into work. had some daft bint in a Kia in front insisted in driving in the middle of the road making all oncoming traffic have to pull over or stop.
got as far as Heckford Bridge, for thse who know this bit of Essex, and white van man was stuck on the hill. Insignia driver attempted to go round him and got stuck alongside. 30 minutes for them to sort themselves out and a artic came the other way, graduale slope up but he had to stop for a car suddenly turning round. Blocked that way as well then.
After another 30 minutes, the traffic behind me got out the way so I U turned and went home.Got to Tiptrees mini roundabout to have another daft bint just not attempt to stop and came right out in front of me. Then she starts shouting at me for being there. Dont know what she would have told her insurance if we had made contact. I saw him coming with the right of way but went anyway.
