The storm was hectic over Krugersdorp last night around 18h00. Had to drop off a friend that side and couldn't see 5 meters in front of me at some stages. Was pitch black and the USELESS PEOPLE were driving with rear fogs and brights on!!! Ended up staying that side for a while until the storm passed because I fail to see why I should leave my life in the hands of the incompetent drivers out there selfish enough to blind others just to try and see where they're going, or to be noticed.

And the traffic lights which are allergic to water don't help much either...

*rant over
*sorry
*won't happen again
*woosah



Drive safe guys, and please consider the road users around you :thumbs:

heheh...

Rather that then let fanatic cars be destroyed.

If there is hail, there will be plenty to go around.

I did about 400 cars last year.

You folk have no idea,

I managed to keep my entire staff from last years hail, so that if we have another event, I am geared,ready to go.

I actually started out a Dent pressing training academy so I have dent techs on stand by, and my resident tech is flippen brilliant.

So yes I am banking on the hail. If not, I retrench 6 people, tis the way of the world.

And to spite all of this, believe me when I say that I still wish that no fanatic's suffer under the hail

I have been in a hail storm myself, with my sparkly 730d E65 that I had for like a month, so I know how this feels, and there worst is, there is NOTHING that you can do.

Be safe guys.
