Motorway bump with a lorry…..
On the M606 slip road to the M62 on Monday afternoon – left work at 2:30 for a 4pm dentist visit.
The M62 turned out to be closed until 7:30pm a few junctions along.
Meant stop start traffic.
Lorry did not see me as my car was joining, so went into the side of me.
Thankfully I was stationery, and he said ‘Sorry I did not see you’ – he was in a hired cab and not familiar with it, so complete liability accepted.
Thankfully got a loan car, but really not a happy person – there is something wrong about driving a car full of repaired panels and body filler, but merficully no injuries.
Got home at 9pm by the time the motorway re-opened.
