Andrade Posted June 20, 2010 Report Posted June 20, 2010 It started raining on my way home last night, so I need a new car. (I was driving slowly) Notice 3 more cars further up the road looking the other side, crashed in the barriers, etc. It was like driving on marble. By the time I left there were 6 cars involved in an accident (not related to me)
Andrade Posted June 20, 2010 Author Report Posted June 20, 2010 was that on the coast road near valleta not really its on a main road in Sliema hopefully they'll do something about it after yesterday's pileup
LUKE261 Posted June 20, 2010 Report Posted June 20, 2010 Thats the trouble in malta mate the roads are so greasy when theyre wet, this is because of the heat, in the uk the roads in the wet almost have as much grip in the wet as in the dry, unless u got rwd and trying to make it go sideways lol
over_head_cam Posted June 20, 2010 Report Posted June 20, 2010 Poor Viva Glad you are OK though The roads are very smooth and good in the dry, but with the rain.....
Stu_B Posted June 21, 2010 Report Posted June 21, 2010 I thought the roads were really slippery in the dry over there. I had a little hire car (can't remember what) and it would understeer & oversteer everywhere Sorry to hear about your Viva though, you must be gutted! Is this why the estate project is on hold?

Yeah I got used to that car, i had a crush on them when i was 14/15 and wanted one eversince. The estate is on hold because i want to try and find another OSF as a daily as it was a hassle sourcing parts for the vauxhall. Also I am going abroad in august for a week so i have to put something aside for that too. Oh well! no spray this year lol
Admin Mk2Jo Posted June 21, 2010 Admin Report Posted June 21, 2010 Rain ..... In Malta Must've been like driving on a sheet of Ice Andrade Shame about the little Viva Glad you are okay though
Andrade Posted June 21, 2010 Author Report Posted June 21, 2010 Must've been like driving on a sheet of Ice couldn't have said it better!
Andrade Posted June 23, 2010 Author Report Posted June 23, 2010 I have come across the below video of the night i crashed. It starts off with a car crashing in exactly my same spot, but this guy was a bit of a hero speed wise. You can see my car about to be towed away too Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Andrade Posted June 23, 2010 Author Report Posted June 23, 2010 police came while i was there, went about the 4 cars involved by then and left, i assume they had to go again when the video happened. i was gone by then
