    How has he managed that? Looks like a very straight piece of road. Surprise Mind you, looking at the road surface again, it's not too smooth is it!

    The report says the driver was caining it, probably got a bit of lift and off he popped for a quick dip.

    The road does look bumpy.  You can see a slide starts right after a bump, if he was giving it beans the wheel could have sped up as it lifted then spun the car as it landed.

    Did you notice on the next page that they had a wet hoover on it? Hmm
