A lesson learnt the hard way one he wont forget
glad hes ok mate one very lucky boy
Fletch,
Glad he walked away from that, Cruise control can be a good thing to save getting fines, but bloody dangerous as well, because it doesn't do the steering or the braking, Just the GO.

A very worthy post Big_fletch, thanks for that, so pleased that your Bro is ok, a lucky, lucky boy indeed.
Cheers, the ferret.
Hey Fletcha
If your younger bro is anything like you, he's a top bloke. He made a mistake - a very big mistake - one any of us could have made.
A picture is worth a thousand words, so enough said. Glad he's ok. This will be a good testimony for years and years to come.
Take care out there.

Hey Fletch, so glad that your brother escaped with only minor injuries mate, very lucky boy mate.
When I am driving a long or short distance I always stop after 1 hour to stretch my legs, with the silly season nearly upon us it is a wake up call for everyone mate...........thanks for reminding us all

It's not about staying awake its about staying alert. If you are trying to stay awake you are already fatigued and you shouldn't be behind the wheel.
Glad to hear you still have a brother.
excellent post fletch everybody sometimes needs a wakeup call to think of the consiquences but thank god you bro walked away, should bump this thread every once in a while to keep the heads up
Lucky boy. Serves as a good reminder to us all. Thanks for sharing.

Good post and well said everyone, like said before cruise can be good but when you are tiered it makes it easier to fall asleep as you are even more relaxed and in most cases without it when you drift off you normally relax your legs and lift your foot off the to pedal and that change in speed normally wakes you up.
So glad you bro is ok.
