It must be that time of day for...

[mentalboy]

.... another pointless motoring question.

So rather than clogging up 'General bike chat' let's widen the field and include all vehicles.

And your subject is.... the most reckless motoring incident you've had the joy to perform. Either knowingly, in retrospect or even one that someone has pointed out to you, not necessarily killing any kittens during said manoeuvre.

Personally I've got too many to choose from, so hows about this one for starters (there may be more following ) ...

Being told by a fellow courier colleague that whilst we were booting back to our depot (he was, of course, behind me at the time) that upon entering a roundabout I managed to get a 13 tonne box lorry 'up in the air' to such an extent that he thought I'd passed the point of no return. I for my part hadn't got a clue that my offside wheels were about 3 feet off the road.
In all likelihood it would have probably made a right mess, but it didn't.

When I was about 15, my mum asked me to clean her car so I thought it would be easier to whip it from the parking space to infront of the house, a trip of about 10 yards. It didn't occur to me that I couldn't drive so after getting it in gear, with the choke out, it leapt forward, went across our front garden and ploughed in to the side of the next door neighbours car. I meanwhile took a dive out of the car into the garden. Mum wasn't best pleased, neither was the neighbour.

Here's an artists impression

Overtaking traffic travelling at motorway speed while they are in the right hand lane has to be up near the top of my list.

I overtook a several double artics on my heavily laden 350 bullet (max speed 55mph) on a stretch of unlimited autobahn. That was pretty entertaining as you looked in the mirror to see smoke pouring off all four tyres as Helmut the German trys to scrub 100+mph off his road speed.

Overtaking three open top MGs who were dawdling into a parking area - with a 1958 Fordson Major and muckspreader.
It was a narrow road and bumping on the opposite verge made a big slab of steaming stuff fall off and part of it went in the last one.

Racing my then boss, around hitchin town centre, at 11pm on a Friday, a week after passing my test. At some points reaching upwards of 50mph*. In front of a policeman.

Oops.

Very very lucky boy that night. Just got a producer

*Of course, I made that up.

The closest accident I have had and the most regrettable time in my life so far.

https://i.imgur.com/dcAwQxT.png

Was travelling at approx 25 mph down a sub-urban road which was covered in ice. When approaching the junction I pressed the brakes and tyres just let go. At this point I was just a passenger approaching the junction with no way to stop in time. All i could do was blast the horn whilst trying to stop.

The rest is clear in the image. Missed the car with less than a meter to spare.

I stay very slow on ice after this event.

it involved smoke brakes and a rather angry mx5 driver
