Dear Caren mates, I was driving near the above mentioned this morning at about 1000 hrs. When I was approaching traffic light, I couldn't make it past as there was a red light camera. I proceeded to slow down with my brakes to a stop at the junction. At this time, the brakes couldn't slow the vehicle down and my vehicle skidded. I went from lane 3 to lane 1, with the side of the vehicle ramming very hard on the roadside kerb. There were 2 persons at the junction but luckily were quite far from the roadside. At the time, luckily no cars around me. So many eyes were on me. My vehicle was obstructing the traffic flow so i proceeded to reverse a bit and move off after that.
Outcome:
Rim out of shape bumper slight dent A rude shock which I can't forget !
Just a reminder, drive carefully.. The road was wet at the time but rain has stopped. I was driving a Mitsubishi L300 Panel Van. Can't forget what happened.

I hope you are OK. Van has the tendency to skid, No ABS probably. Take care. Dear Caren mates, I was driving near the above mentioned this morning at about 1000 hrs.

I skidded a L300 before as well. It was drifting I have to hard steer it back in line within the lane, all because of a last min amber traffic light.
