Well I got called back offshore at super short notice yet again, but I had a near death experiance on the way home on Sunday night
Coming back from Stirling along the motorway in what can only be called monsoon conditions, I come up on a wad of traffic.
Both lanes are moving slow at about 60mph so I pull into the fast lane and start following a Discovery 3 past the slower line and a van slots in behind me.
Now we are all doing just over 60 with more than enough of a gap between for the conditions when we come up to an on ramp. 3 cars come down this ramp and start to filter in... then all hell broke loose
I see an MPV of some sort side swipe a car in the slow lane sending it right round and into a Vectra in the fast lane. Everyone slams on the anchors and the tw*t in the slow lane next to me swearves into my lane and misses me bit what must have been mm's
This causes me to swerve, the back end steps out BIG STYLE and I just hang onto it and end up the centre reserve gravel half backwards - along with the Disco that was infront of me.
I get out to see the c**t that almost hit me DRIVING OFF!!!!!!!
The road was total carnage, think 6 cars were involved in the end, 3 looked really bad. I didn't get a chance to check mine before I had to get the train up to ABZ (I was shaking too much anyway) but my dad recons I've taken a chunk out of the lower front bumper splitter thing and I've probably damaged the 2 drivers side alloys since they went sideways into the gravel
I'm still not quite right... I've never had such a scare
