On my way to work this morning I came accross a bloke who had cooked the engine of his car.

I pulled over to the other side of the road in front of him (I was going South and he was going North) and asked him if he wanted some help or towing to a safer spot.

I heard a noise behind me and turned to have a look only to see a car, covered in ice with an area the size of a plate rubbed in the windscreen for the driver to see through, overtaking a bus on the outside of a left hand bend, blindly. He saw us at the last moment and slammed his anchors on, tyres blue smoking and managed to stop about 10ft from my bumper.

I nearly got rear-ended in exchange for a good deed :roll:

The people we see who have done that usually arrive on a spinal board, as they can see b*gger all

had something similar before i did my back in, broke down in the wagon (40 ft and 26 tonnes) pulled over to the curb, hazards on - cab up ... and in the 20 minutes i was there i lost count of the number of people that either nearly rear ended it, or pulled blindly up behind it and sat there..only to realise and TRY and pull out from 1 -2 feet behind it!
also had a few 'Coffee bean' gestures  :wink: ..mainly from white van man!! people jut dont look or think that because its a lorry it'll move out of their way...
