What a dick, that wouldn't have been an accident, so i don't feel sorry for him. He's just gonna have to cop that mistake on the chin.

Although i'm sure everyone has had some wheelspin in the wet.
Seriously, why is everyone whinging about losing traction in the wet.
If you have half an idea of how to drive a car, you would know when it will break traction, or if you are getting the boot into it a bit much, that it 'could' break traction.
If driving in the wet is making everyone lose traction, then slow the F$%^ down. Or it'll be someone in a Ford off here, that will have their pic up next.
I'd have to agree with some of the guys on here, that its obviously not just Holden drivers being idiots... but they do seem to be the vast majority (around my area at least).

And no i don't drive some 4 cyl car, so i do have some idea of what its like to have some power, not to mention **** wet road holding tyres.

We had the same kind of thing coming into the Estate where i live, a Commodore driver, who has come round the corner and ended up beached on a rock, which actually saved him from having it sitting a a pond.
I hope he felt like a d#$%head sitting there with his mate, while everyone drove past.

lol what a moron, shouldn't have a drivers license. Maybe next time it rains he should run home to mummy and hind under her bed, instead of hopping in a motor vehicle...

He probably has one of those $1000 tyre and wheel package deals. Come with Falkens if you are "lucky".
