Had a bit of a moment earlier today.
Driving my disco downhill into a country town round my way, not fast by any means, and crossed some field run off water. Car went instantly into aqua plane mode and headed for the verge on a slight right hander.
At the last moment tyres broke through surface and met Tarmac which ended up pushing car into opposing lane. Luckily no cars in immediate vicinity but there was a kerb and a stone wall round a farm. Kerbed both offside but missed wall, thankfully.
Stopped further down to check and both alloys took a doing and front tyre has a gashed sidewall. No leaks but it's scrap and the rim has a buckle in it. Steering wobble became apparent and now gone since spare now on. Tyre only a few months old as well! Rear will survive but rim needs refinishing.
Glad I was driving and not her otherwise it would have been a lot worse.
Hey ho. Ho. Ho.Ho....
