    @markwright3161 4 роки тому +8

    There's a B road near me with a lethal dip in it with no warning signs and is difficult to see from a distance when driving near the speed limit. I only know to slow from family telling me before I drive on that road, and that's only when it isn't avoidable, for fear of forgetting and hitting it. I've heard about cars being totaled by it and we don't have a steep embankment/hill to crash down off this road. I've hit the better side of the road at 40 mph and nearly ground out a stock Focus. The council do come along every now and then and fill in it with tar but the road is over a bog or moss area and the road just sinks again pretty soon after, a lot of heavy farm and commercial traffic use this road.
    I can well believe there's hidden bumps elsewhere that can do the same, and coupled with a serious slope away from the road, down which the bump could spit out the car, I can see this happening. Had the injuries not been so severe I'd go off in more detail on how speed limits and speed enforcement have nothing to do with safety and how the current level needed to pass a test in the UK is too low with much not taught properly if at all that's needed to make safe, capable drivers.
    I hope all involved recover completely.

    In Glasgow during lockdown the city centre was absolutely dead. Not a soul in sight. The only people on the street in broad daylight were the homeless folk with no other place to go. I pulled up to a set of lights and was met with a large group of junkies, who were shouting and swearing at me for no reason. They came so close that I thought they were going to rip me off my motorbike and so I slammed it in gear, dumped the clutch and got the hell out of there. That was the scariest moment that I've had on the motorbike so far.

    Tip for the guy who wants to change the colour of the MX-5. DO NOT vinyl wrap your car yourself. Pay someone to do it if you go down that route and if you get a good job then it’s nearly as good as an actual spray but cheaper (still really expensive but cheaper than paint) but plasti dip done well with a lot of research as a home job. You’ll probably wants a mate to help you but it can turn out really nice

    Loop of paracord melted together as a keyring, pass through itself to tie it to the motorcycle handlebars and pop key in ignition. This way it can't just be grabbed.

    It used to be useful to have numbers with companies like BMW like you said, but now tbh it’s only useful for the series like 520d you instantly know it’s a 5 series, (etc with the other series’s) My Dad had one of the last of the useful numbered BMW’s until recently he has a F11 530i and you knew it had a 3.0 litre straight 6

    Subaru engines (and most of the drivetrain) are supposed to slide out upon certain impacts to avoid caving into the fire wall. I’m pretty sure other manufacturers also implement safety designs of similar function.

      Well, because if you reverse forward you're in the wrong gear. And that's generally not good for whatever is in front of you.

    A coupé or coupe is a passenger car with a sloping or truncated rear roofline and generally two doors (although several four-door cars have also been marketed as coupés). ... The term coupé comes from the French translation of "cut".
