Warning Slippery Road - Watts St East

[neoise]

Looked for an 'official ' tread of this nature but did not find one - if there is pls merge.

Pls be warned - heading West on Watts St from the Streatham (sp?) Lodge / highway intersection Curepe (South of the UWI SPEC Grounds) there is some substance on the road before the first hump and onwards to the second that looks like water but is extremely slippery. This can cause a serious accident or damage to vehicles slowing down by the hump. My ABS kicked in just before the same hump even though I was driving slowly (about 15 kph) and slowing down when meeting this slick. Tyres were slippery after leaving the slick. Be careful out there ppl.

Yup, that's correct!
Got caught in a skid at 6:30 whilst approaching hump.
Good thing I wasn't pushing over 30 km/h !!

Seems that someone disposed of used oil in their garbage & the rubbish truck compactor did the rest .... leaving an oil slick on the road!

Did a small burnout after the hump to clean the rubber, lol.

I having a hard time visualising where this is, OP can you post a google map pic?

This is the short bit of road that runs parallel to the highway, keep heading West and you will meet You-wee Supermarket, etc.
