We had clouds :down:
We had blue skies until about a 30 minutes before the event - then it got really foggy.
Meh.

Did they find who caused the accident? :p
The woman driving the car! Turns out cutting in front if a tank isn't the best idea. On the bright side, she was unharmed. And the tank was unscathed as well :p
I would be concerned about the state of your military if the tank was not ok. :p
Well it is made in Britain so you never know :p
Better keep quiet or the new ISIS weapon will be stressed-out soccer moms. :p
Well, a tank always has the right of way. Even if it hasn't.Quote:

This being a British tank, it's entirely possible that it follows in the proud tradition of the Austin Allegro, Morris Marina, and other stalwarts of the British auto industry... and may indeed have a short breaking distance.
(Merely for amusement's sake. Though the service record of the Challenger 2 is limited to a relatively straightforward deployment in Iraq, it appears to have performed quite well against a variety of armored, unconventional, and ATGM threats. There are other more battle-tested designs out there, certainly, but I suspect the Challenger 2 is somewhere between an adequate and good MBT.)
Not today climate change. Not today!
Taken from my front door, thats my 6 car driveway, and a 2 lane road in a background.
