syncro vs ford

Crashed my syncro into late model falcon station wagon as he
unexpectedly pulled out in front of me to head the other way to me. I
sufferd some damage to rh corner blinker and bumper but was able to
drive home. The falcon was #@!!!%ed. Front wheel nealy broken off and
pieces from his front spread out all over the road. It was
unceremiously dragged onto a flat top tow truck. The impact spun him
around 180. The driver was shocked to see the minimal damage to the
kombi as were the police and tow truck drivers while the ford was
basicly scrap. I ended up in a deep muddy drain on the opposite side
of the road and the tow drivers were arguing over who was going to get
her out when i got in and drove straight out while the police stopped
the highway traffic so i could return to the other side of the road.
Now I think the ford driver will think twice b4 pulling out in front
of a kombi.

Cheers Pete
I will say NICE only because no-one was injured badly....
I looked at some photos on busman.be the other night and the Volvo
didnt quite fair so well either.
Must have given you pleasure to jump in and get yourself out of the
ditch...
Love it......
