I don't know what this stupid teenage driver was thinking. The news report said she was drinking and driving, even though she was actually TEXTING while driving, with my daughter in the car with her! Absolutely disgraceful, and my daughter Emm was KILLED in a car accident as a result of this idiotic behaviour!
I would say the Merc was 100% at fault, although the camera car appeared to be travelling too fast on the straight, they did slow down to a reasonable speed approaching the bend and were almost staionary when the collision happened. If the Merc had approached the bend at a resonable speed there would have been no collision. I would contest the insurance company decision.
absolutely flying past at well over 100 in a dust-grey blur.
Not entirely sure what the rush was, but treating a public road like a personal runway isn’t a great look. Bit less Fast & Furious, bit more basic self-preservation wouldn’t go amiss.
Plenty of us would quite like to arrive in one piece.
Another teenage driver who believes he owns the road! Tonypandy Bypass - you merge at the first set of traffic lights before Parc Gellifaelog and get behind the car who is travelling in front of you. Not Speed past being inches away when its not your right of way and push your way in nearly causing a serious accident. If you know this vehicle or are the parents of the occupants, have a serious chat with them! Camera footage will be submitted to the police too!
Some like it hot KA
