Memorable Moments

Driving a Transit van down the M6 during the day in the early 1970’s and it was raining heavily with road awash and very little traffic. Going round a gentle left hander and with van still looking as if it was being driven in a normal fashion it very slowly and neatly drifted from the inside lane to the middle lane and on to the outside lane by which time the road had straightened out and thankfully remained in that lane. Settling back down I didn’t think I was going that fast either and all that went through my head was - don’t brake and it was certainly a lesson in the power of water I’ve never forgotten.
