On Tuesday I saw a guy cycling down the M621 towards Leeds, admittedly on the hard shoulder but still an act of lunacy!!

Dead seagull, in my rear view mirror shortly after mistakenly taking off from the central reservation right into my path this morning.
Made a hell of a bang into the windscreen right at eye level! Wouldn't have wanted to be in a car without a screen helmet or not.

Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

I was heading north up the M6 a couple of years back in my old 106 (north of manchester somewhere I think....)
I was just crusing along at 60-65 (45bhp need a bit of 'persuasion' to go much faster than that  )
when I got overtaken by an old git in a brand new merc SLK, nothing out of the ordinary untill he went to pull back in and one of his rear wheels
sudenly developed a 45 degree positive camber. I don't beleve that this is a standard feature on SLK's, so I tried to alert him to fault,
but in responce I got a 'what do you want commoner?' look and he shot off at 100+ mph 
and on the A1 up here (ok not technicaly a motorway) I saw a little puff of smoke about 1m diamiter just hanging in the air....
...but I saw that in my rear view mirror as my car had just suddenly stalled at 70mph and the smoke was about 1mm worth of my clutch

Would it change the results if the guy doing the running was a member of this web site?????

Not me but a mate showed me a picture of an Irish road sign half way down a slip road looking from the rear of the car. It said "Wrong way go
back"
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Miles of stationary traffic on the M40 Northbound that had beensat there so long people were out their cars waling around and chatting to people,
south bound was deserted.
Turned out to be because of that biker who got shot.

Boing 737 on the hard shoulder of the north bound M1. I was there in 1989 when the British Midland flight failed to make the runway at East Midlands
airport. I was travelling back to Leeds from London at the time. I think that about 47 people on the plane died and I am amazed that they
didn't take any traffic with them.
Less dramatically, I did a reasonable impression of the old Volvo advert where the driver is avoiding flying boxes whilst someone takes pictures. I
was driving down the M6 approaching a flat bed lorry with washing machine sized boxes on the back. Two of them fell off and started to cart wheel
down the motorway. I was approaching very fast so I swerved and went through the gap between the two of them as they rolled down the road.
