If you count not dying as a winning week, then yes, we had one of those weeks:
- We drive out of a car park in Launceston, pull up to the traffic lights and The Bloke in the Shed begins to panic when he can’t figure out if the lights are red or green. At exactly the same moment, we both realise we’re in a one-way street – facing three lanes of oncoming traffic! I’m sure our faces looked like deer caught in a headlight. We are laughing about it now. But can I just say, it wasn’t funny at the time!
Do you have any traffic stories you’re willing to share? Fess up. We’ve all had them!

Kell I backed into the car of a teacher at C’s new day care to start the week ended up a balling mess so can more than sympathise with you and Bloke in The Shed
Ouch! That’s not a good start, Linda. You poor thing.
Thankfully nothing recently, touch wood, but the last accident I had was running into a person from behind who then proceeded to run away from me in her car instead of exchanging information, very bizarre!
Oh dear, Kym. Some people react quite funnily to these sorts of things. I think they go into panic mode and suddenly can’t remember what the right thing to do is! 🙂
oh no!
I have also turned into a one way street the wrong way. I have also, recently driven along a road narrowly missing a head on collision. I thought I was driving on a two lane st but it was one of those double carriageway set ups with a HUGE green belt in the middle.
And one time I was stopped at a red light on a very flat street where I could see several sets of lights ahead of me. I drove when the light turned green… unfortunately it wasn’t my light. Still managed to avoid collision.
I am an idiot clearly. A very lucky idiot.
Oh my goodness, Toushka! That’s not good. You poor thing. It’s so scary. You only have to miss one sign and you can end up in big trouble. So glad you’ve got out of them all unscathed though! 🙂
