Yep, fucking southerners. Too busy checking if their snapbacks are correctly adjusted. Probably driving around in the fog in oversized shades too
WTF is a snapback

Completely agree.
Try and leave a safe distance between the car and yourself, then a whole bunch of cunts speed up, cut in, then slam their brakes on because they've got too close to the car infront, causing you to brake and have a potential accident.
Drop back again and the process gets repeated over and over again.

Wouldn't do that Ben G you'll end up further away from where you want to go than you started.
Will have all been someone in a BMW's fault. Guaranteed.

Sounds like they should slap a limit on the bridge itself. Regular users of it on the news make it sound like it was a ticking time bomb.
Amazing no one ended up dead looking at the pics.

Those variable speed limits do that ok. Got a 40 mph one in Portsmouth at the moment. Everyone drives at 35 max.

You don't need variable limits to suggest you need to slow down when its that foggy. Its taking yet more responsibility off the driver which is why people think they are invincible as it is.

If everyone knows the bridge is bad, yet there was still a 100 car pile up, that makes everyone who crashed in it an idiot.

just looked through the actual article on the website, 25 looks like the back end of a Vitara with a chrome rollcage and the cars buckled in half.

What Steve means and I agree, is there seems to be some sort of idea that putting a legislation in will somehow prevent a further freak accident due to bad weather.
People driving like dicks will not change their ways if the limit is different or someone places a caution sign up

Exactly that.
I hate driving into work on an early shift as it is. It's one of the things stopping me going for a job with normal hours. The standard of driving is awful abd everyone wants to fight to get past you. If they'd have woke up 5 minutes earlier, they wouldn't need to rush.
