Scott Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 facts are facts do you mean? I don't know the facts though, I can hardly state anything about this accident for a fact. I just commented that I don't believe the reason for the space saver being on the car, and I also stated that others were thinking it. Of course you never post anything controversial do you Gaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlotte Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Jesus, give the guy a break! He is lucky to be alive, the last thing he needs is you lot playing judge and and jury. Innocence until pro.......... and all that. The parties that know the facts will not be posting them here, for a while. If the car was not hoisted on it would need four wheels to be pulled on to the pick up. The other alloy may have been smashed to pieces. I am glad to hear the owner is OK, nothing too serious with your head. I hope you make a speedy recovery. Exactly - god some people really don't know when to stop and walk away from the keyboard.

jonathanc Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Wow, from the pictures you posted that seemed pretty nasty. Glad you are on the mend mate! In OP's defense, during this freezing weather accidents can happen even though you are not speeding. I nearly lost control of my Mondeo after taking a right turn at 15mph. Get well soon mate!

neo2810 Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 $#@!ing hell people being a bit harsh on here! the poor lads in hospital and totaled his car! for all you know he could of been avoiding a pedestrian/ hit by someone talk about kicking someone when there down i ended up in hospital last year after the wheel studs in the car i was traveling in sheared off instantly, no warning no time to react, was very lucky to escape with my life, a freak accident that was no ones fault at all. all the care in the world wouldnt of prevented it. Jesus, not much needed to stir some hornets nests. As stated, I'm glad to hear the chaps ok. Its not easy to make a mess of a supra like that without doing a hefty speed, whether that be within the speed limit or not, I wasn't judging. My point was, please make sure he learn from this 'mistake' so that another destroyed supra does not go for nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprab1 Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Great to hear your ok mate. I know it's a bolox about the car but at the end of the day it's just a car & can be replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guigsy Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Wishing you a speedy recovery mate. It doesn't look like excessive speed to me tbh. Looks like a dual carriageway so for say 70 mph the ammount of damage is reasonable. Sure the front end is smashed but the rear is in one piece as is the roof is ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanBEXsupra Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 he did roll the car... whos to tell how that wheel was before the accident? they cant put a car on a tow truck without 4 attached to the vehicle! (also with all the road regulations, im sure it would have been some Vosa BS about damaging the road surface!) wishing a speedy recovery mate!

Gaz6002 Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Glad you're OK. Looked like a nasty crash. What's the story with the space saver? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d-_-b Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I'm sure the recovery guys would not put the space saver wheel on while the car was on its roof From an "Ease of access" P.O.V - that would probably be a better time to put it on... Wheels up in the air & not on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorin Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 The Policeman did well to clamber into the boot, remove the cover and unscrew the space saver, all with the car upside down. Not to mention if the old wheel had been smashed off I don't think the hub would be in a fit state for putting another wheel on, and I'm not sure the police carry spare wheel nuts... I would have thought it's the recovery people's job to worry about that kind of thing though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwilkinson Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I can categorically state that no Police Officer in his right mind would fit any wheel to a car following an RTC. Just glad the chap is OK and no one else appears to have been injured. Shame about the car but better that than the alternatives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlotte Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I suspect he was trying to save some 'face' rather than space in this thread but I can't see that it's all that relevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
