*** The official car accident thread***

[pugboy]

certain areas of highways have serious water pooling issues now from heavy trucks causing long shallow canals esp in the outer lanes
during heavy rain when water pools in those channels your wheels will hook and pull to that side
vehicle will twitch if you not holding wheel good

south bound from caroni bridge to the guaymere river rightmost lane
north bound same area leftmost lane

True...def risk for hydroplaning


In before 430 vids ..hope no one was hurt

[pugboy]

it’s more like you hitting a bump but it causing a twitch and pull to that side

key is to just keep holding wheel straight and not trying to correct, if you react and try to correct hard is when the bacchanal starts

when road fully sheeted with water you can’t tell that the water is deeper in those areas

i worry more about the cars in front of me losing control

I does hug that curve on the extreme left cause Trinis love to take sweeping curves in the middle of the road or the oncoming lane.

even on a 3 lane highway - love to cross the white line into other lanes - i don't understand how ..

some drivers on the roundabouts too

Idiots on the inner roundabout lane

South bound after GB right before the Caroni flyover. Saw fire truck and police. Traffic backed up to the Caroni Bridge.

I believe an Audi run off the south bound and into the drain.

See about 3 dead dog on the SouthBound highway this morning. Real bad weather, almost whiteout heavy rain and the water collecting on the road.

And once again, what is it about Trini and their fetish of driving without lights in low visibility conditions? It hadda be an engrained dotishness thing in this country yes. Plz don't let it have anybody on these forums driving in rain without lights.

dead dog likely from fireworks

Driving with low beams should be law all the time but 99.9% of cars have hibeams only

We live in a society where people will spoil vomit. Can't give them anything because they misuse it. They get lights, they want to show off all the lights. Wire all the lights to come on at once, fog, indicator, curb etc. Make it law to drive with low beam, they will fit the brightest light they can find for low beam. So now you have to come and tell them low beam of a certain wattage and colour just so they can see in the rain. You do that, then oh how Rowley only wanna fight down people.

I see that a lot when I’m going into Grange in the early hours of the morning especially on the stretch. Bad weather or not a good few drivers don’t have on any lights at all coming out of Grande.

This hi beam thing does get me vex oui. Why d hell you need to drive around with high beams on all d time not even dimming it when approaching another vehicle? I hadda slow down while being blinded especially some of the extremely bright LEDs.

That and giving back high beams, but it doesn't seem to have any effect on them.

i try that too, it works on some and they dim it (or the car senses my lights and does it automatically?) but the rest doh seem to get the message or care.

One set of carnage all over the country,
People still speeding like that! and they still blazing past police on routine stroll on the highway and nothing.
I dont know why people just cant slow down and drive so that they can control the vehicle better.

Oh well onto another day where someone else will end up in hospital or a morgue from just going about their daily commute
