Mr Turner sir, I'd like to hear your view on this?, what is the correct procedure for driving on snow and ice in normal traffic conditions??I like the thanks button, but ,please, an I agree button.
Will the grammar and spelling police respect I do make grammatical errors, and have carp spelling, no need to remind me.;)

Said it before, say it again... I have a dash cam too and rarely catch anything interesting because I drive competently. Your videos prove you don't.Strider590 wrote: »Instinct kicked in though, caught the slide, fish tailed a little and got it straight again.

I didn't say it was anything interesting...... Car hits black ice, car loses grip, driver reacts, car goes back in straight line. I'm not sure what you think your getting at???
The only thing to do differently is to completely avoid said road until a) the temp increases or b) they send the gritters down there (which they won't do as it's only a narrow rural B road).“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”

My video's have been analysed and often misinterpreted, with the addition of fiction elements that were not even present within the video itself, a lot of assumptions based on no evidence at all...... Well I blame the UFO that flew overhead, you can't see it, but it's there because I say it's there and you can't prove its not.“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”

It wouldn't really make for exciting entertainment and is a waste of 30mins of my life cutting and editing a video.Strider590 wrote: »Problem in that instance was the car in front didn't find the ice patch, but due to an oncoming car I was forced over just a few more inches and did hit the ice.

No, the true skill is not driving like a plank, but keeping your distance from the car in front.0 -
Styder, you still got that dash cam footage of you reversing away from that big bloke trying to perform a rectal examination on you with a wheel brace??I like the thanks button, but ,please, an I agree button.
