One time that I am glad we weren't going just a bit faster..

Mon Apr 06, 2009 6:02 am

Mike took me out on the back of the Busa yesterday (a bit of bike therapy.)

After all of the heavy rain there were a lot of potholes and debris on the road, but nothing compared to this.

A huge landslide straight onto this car! We got there just after it happened. There is a huge cut-out in the mountain on one side (where all of the rocks came from) and a sheer drop off on the other side. Guy had kids in the car.

Needless to say that we were watching more than just the road for the trip home! :shock:

Saw that on the news last night - as you say you're very lucky you weren't further ahead.
That family was VERY lucky.

:shock: FAAARK :shock:
You think your lucky you weren't a few seconds ahead, imagine the car. If they were another half a second ahead the rock would have been on the roof. If it was a couple i'll bet the bloke was counting his lucky stars the missus took so long to put her make-up on this time!!

holy crap on a cracker.....how lucky are you?? That's amazing!

Would have been one hell of a shock for the driver - especially with the kids in the car.
