My father was driving the cork to mallow road yesterday when a lorry swerved right across the main road coming against him. A car had gone up inside the lorry and hit the ditch and taken off, the lorry driver had swerved out to avoid it and lost control.
My old man had veered into his own ditch firstly to avoid lorry but when he realised the lorry was out of control he swerved right and made it out behind the tail of the lorry into open road. He came close to a heart attack id say having had two strokes in the past. Just goes to show how strong your instincts are in a crisis. I saw a replay on it from a lorry behind that had a dashcam. The lorry driver involved was hugging my father he thought he’d killed him.
His jack russel was in the back of the jeep he got an awful belting around the place.
All still in one piece however
