Jillybabes   10 #1 Posted June 15, 2017 I was driving home from work last night and there was lots of police cars, ambulance etc outside the Hallamshire hospital, there was a car on its roof, looked pretty bad, hoping everyone involved is ok, so much bad news lately Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Jeffrey Shaw   90 #2 Posted June 15, 2017 There must have been quite an impact- or exceptionally bad driving, or both- to overturn a car. They have a low centre of gravity nowadays (other than the wretched 4WD brigade!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
