Best wishes @iron_mike and family, take it as a blessing and tear into the summer

We’'ll have a few when we beat Tipp in the Munster final, kid.

[balbec]

All the best Mike. Take it handy for a while.

[Bandage]

+1. Yeah, maybe stop posting for a couple of years Mike.

Hopefully you make a speedy recovery Mike

Did another car rear end you Mike or were you involved in piling into another car?

As @myboyblue said earlier, roads that get rain after a spell of dry weather are lethal as they become so greasy & have fuck all grip. Plus most motorways are deplorably poor at getting surface water away quickly. Aqua planing on a wet motorway is a fucking frightening experience.

[iron_mike]

Honestly Hard. I have no idea. We weren’t rear ended I know that much. There is three different versions from people who were in the car with me

[iron_mike]

I’m not trying to be coy @carryharry but there is a suspicon that the actual car that caused the accident might have fled the scene and as such ( fuck I’ve always wanted to say that where ir made sense) the less I say about it the bettet

[The_Most_Infamous]

Don’t go into any details pal.

While I wouldn’t define Saturday as a road to Damascus moment, it certainly was a life changer. My family and I were involved in a serious crash on the m7 Saturday evening.
10 people walked away with minor injuries.
It’s nothing short of a miracle.
Look after yere families lads.
I’m sitting here at home and with the amount of cuts and bruises I have, I look like Barney.
But I’m alive as are my family

Glad to hear everyone is fine @iron_mike, I’ve often thought about it but it must be a horrible feeling, those few milliseconds before impact, with all the family in the car, the stuff of nightmares.

You have no idea @Fran but it’s the miliseconds during /after impact that are pure surreal and the best way to describe it is like when the referee goes upstairs to the TMO to check a grounding. That miliseconds is actually that slow

[grapes]

Glad you all pulled through​ mike.

[Juhniallio]

Holy shit mike. That sounds mental. I can’t imagine how frightening the what-iffing is. Hug them close.

[Phil_Leotardo]

Glad to hear all ok Mike.

Our roads are dangerous not helped by the amount of cunts on them. It seems to have gotten worse as our economy has improved. Im convinced there is a connection here - I live close to the M7 and I’ve noticed a clear difference in the last 2 years. Weekends now are bumper to bumper (at speed) at certain parts of the m7 and M50.

I’ve a bad habit of seething at cunts tail gating me when I’m already in the outside lane overtaking slower trucks etc. Often some cunt up my arse at 130 kmph.

Wet roads and idiots, spilt second loss of concentration. Lethal

[Locke]

Glad you and the family are okay @iron_mike, frightening stuff no doubt. All the best chief!

[flattythehurdler]

I’ve a bad habit of seething at cunts doing 130 in the fast lane.

[Tassotti]

Muldoons in Ireland have no idea how to drive on a Motorway, its actually frightening, sure most lads think the right hand lane is called the “fast lane” ffs

[myboyblue]

Ain’t that the truth
