Well he has his racing license, but he seems to know little/no fear

Well he has his racing license, but he seems to know little/no fear Easy peasy, You just go on the ARDS course, take the test (eg, warning flag colours) tick box stuff, IIRC multiple choice and you're only assessed over about 5 laps, any chump could pass

Perhaps he never had opportunity to become accustomed to the car, being told by Auntie to get in and drive it hard?
Not good - especially on a slippery road surface.

I certainly hope not, I find him a likeable chap and he always gives it his all on the clips I've seen
I don't watch the program as I'm not a McGuiness fan.
I wish him a full recovery and hopefully no mental scars.

Must be true then. Lots of cars don't have airbags, where is the story? Three wheelers are classified more closely to motorcycles than they are to cars. Under Italian legislation unless the three wheeler is fitted with a full cabin or roll cage and seat belts. there is an obligation to wear a helmet. Seat belts must be worn if they are fitted. I assume that if he had been wearing a full face helmet there is a good possibility that he would not have suffered face injuries but a full face helmet is not so compatible with filming for a TV show

I doubt any open top car is much good in a rollover situation, even with airbags. My 4/4 would be worse than the m3w I’m sure.

Yes could be but I always thought this was a good picure in a strange way of the realities of a Plus 8 - you always have to have luck with you. Sorry for poor quality it's a photo from First and Last book. Yes that's the spare wheel and rack you can see  ![[Linked Image]](http://tm-img.com/images/2023/03/21/plp.jpeg)

This piece of exciting parking outside a hotel in Bath was in yesterday's papers. How did he get it in there ? (and how will they get it out ??) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2023/03/21/Bad-parking-in-Bath.jpeg)

How did he get it in there ? (and how will they get it out ??)
Part 1 = numpty
Part 2, mobile crane & slings, probably take longer to write the method statement & risk assessment
I used to have a video of a lass driving into a workshop for a service in a large SUV and managing to fall into the pit...sideways
