    White Defender accident at Wicks Rd North Ryde.

    Noticed a White Defender at Wicks Rd tonight on the way home. Looks like a van went into the back. Anyone from here?

    Towtruck was in attendance as I zipped past, and drivers exchanging details. Hope nothing too bad. From my very brief glance everything look straight on the Landie.

    Reminds me of the time a blind pedestrian stepped onto the road in front of me. I stopped. The Corolla behind me did as well - braking assisted by bending metal. It took me about five minutes to remove the white paint from the tow bar, but I suspect straightening the bonnet on the Corolla took a lot longer and cost a lot more.

    Yep - done that one, the rice burner doof-doof behind me didn't think he needed to stop before he ran onto my ARB rear step bar. Tow ball went right through his radiator, biggest problem was getting his car off my tow ball.

    I did however lose the plastic cover over the ball.

    Thought I would wear that cost myself.

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.
