ermmmmmm i havent got stuck

[Mr Skrunts]

A mate of mine works on the motorway maintainance, and I was talking to him last night, it seems like people are still driving like idiots and paying no attention at all to the poor weather.

Obviously they have attended a lot more accidents etc with the poor weather, but sadly have had a motorist come through a cordoned off section and crush one of the teams workers legs against the armco and a team leader has been killed because he has carered 2/300 yards through a coned off section.

The motorways are patrolled and gritted as as when and the snow hasnt even had chance to settle. (Dont know how they faired last night though)

 

Seems we have the two extremes of "excessive" caution and none at all.

Pretty much

[edit]My apoologies.

Totally miswritten by me.

The team leader was talking to some one stood outside of thier vechicles, and someone on the motorway carered through a coned off area and slid 2/300 yards and killed him instantly  [/edit][/b]
