saw this on the way home from the SA eseries cruise today. the cop said he came round the corner too fast, lost it and hit the end of barrier on the side of the road. for those who know it, it was on the bend in the road on south road, just after you go over torrens rd, heading north. not sure which way this guy was going though....
didnt ask what condition the driver was in.     |

A mate of mine high-sided his bike on that corner.....
That would off hurt. I guess not all '747's can fly.

That corner always gets them, it is deceptive at best, turning right onto torrens brings them unstuck as well.

Toranas are definately NOT one of the safer vehicles on AUS roads ... looks not too healthy

One less Torana on the road can only be a good thing.

Again the tosser behind the wheel has endangered the life of his passenger or worse.

It's a bad corner that one. 4wd trucks (like CFS/SES) get really tippy toey around there.

Geezus, that's a big hit. I hope everyone in the car is OK. If he had passengers I'd imagine they'd be pretty knocked around.
