    Maybe the D3 driver should have been driving a 101.

    Yet again an example of a Land Rover remaining upright while the earth tilts out of orbit.

    Nicked this photo from a UK forum. Coming downhill then slid straight across a junction. People do not seem to realise that in these conditions that you need to be able to stop at least 10 metres before you have to stop. Also engine braking is more useful then normal braking driving downhill in these conditions. Unfortunately engine braking is not taught these days!





    Regards

    Regretfully, not even LRs can compensate for idiot drivers.
