i thought Armco was to stop you going through it?
must be using a weaker metal these days. considering what it has driven through there isnt as much damage as i would have expected. |

I thought the front end would have been smashed a lot worse driving into that metal gaurd, but it looks like it made it over the barrier quite easily.

must have lost it around the roundabout. the wheels are counter-turned. something like that happened to me, but not that bad. underneath would be rooted.

Looking at the damage the car caused to everything around it plus what it hit. It doesnt look to damaged but as said before the undercarrige wouldnt be very pretty. :

so how was the driver??? ok i hope hate cing fellow P platers in bad situations... i been in one not fun
from what i know about the guardrails they are supposed 2 bend/snap at the base t stop the var becoming airborne and doing more damage and to "soften" the crash... (more than likely i am wrong) |
