Take it Easy Over The Holidays

[richard]

Hey Everyone,

Just wanted to put something out there, especially during the school holiday breaks and as we all try and escape a bit with the kids.

I am a member of the VRA (Volunteer Rescue Association) in NSW and in the past 2 weeks I have been to 2 accidents both involving caravans. (One was a Jayco of some description) After seeing these and the state of the vans after both crashes, I am pleading with people to take it extra easy over the break. (and at any times for that matter)

Take the rests that you need, and travel according to the conditions.

Take it easy and enjoy the holidays and return safe.

Richard

Hear, hear.............I'll second that.

Better to be 1/2 an hour late in this world instead of 40 years (or more) early to the next.:sad:

If you want to race, I can recommend a really great go-kart club!:evil:

Well said Richard. An old NSW sign used to say "Better to arrive late than dead on time". I hope all of you going on holidays have a great time and arrive safe.

Well said Richard.

Stay safe everyone, we had a good run south today, was rainy and really windy when we left home but we eventually drove out of it to clear sunny skies, very little traffic.

Life is about enjoying the journey, not reaching the destination. Shame this so often gets forgotten on the roads today.
