"the worse for wear the driver of the van will find it rather hard to justify someone else being to blame"

“Whilst appreciating your comment Spring_Bok if the van's front end is a bit the worse for wear the driver of the van will find it rather hard to justify someone else being to blame short of the other vehicle turning out in front of the cop's van - and there is no snow left to blame it on either!. The 3 car pile-up on the other side of the carriageway is par for the course unfortunately - if you have ever been on the MI/M6 in those circumstances you will know exactly what I mean?”

“The van's front end was smashed to hell so it was no slow speed shunt. Just goes to show eh who the speed cameras stop accidents! Hold on there was no camera so the driver was careless i wonder if he is going to be prosecuted? Also on the east bound there's is now a 3 car pile up where some other idiot who cant drive was rubbernecking so well done Derbyshire police so called road safety you have just written off 5 cars and how many were injured?”
