Pezhead Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Prayers go out to all the SAU members. We know a few with silver or white R32's. I hope they are alright.

Galois Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Terrible conditions on slippery roads. Thoughts to the families, poor guys were probably just trying to get home from work.

EJD001 Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 traffic was pretty messed up from it. i was just about to get off at calga, and the cop waved at me.. told me to follow 5 highway patrol cars down the freeway to gosford.. we were doing like 5km/h the whole way, had a huge headache by the end of it from all the flashing lights. when we went past the accident scene it was all clear, was like grass and dirt on the rd a bit, but the cops (and im guessing towtrucks) into the old look out on the north side of the bridge, saw all the flashing lights in there as were coming down the bridge. Our prayers go out to the persons family that died in the crash.

Blitz Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Unfortunately I can confirm it was one of my close friends and an SAU member who was in the Silver 32 - I understand he is ok, but is currently in hospital and will require surgery on various injuries.

GTRPowa Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 "Police from the Metropolitan Crash Investigation Unit are appealing for witnesses following yesterday’s fatal crash on the F3. The collision occurred about 1km south of the Peats Ridge Road on-ramp, Somersby, about 4.30pm yesterday (Monday 30 May). Early investigations suggest a silver Holden Commodore, being driven by a 52-year-old man, was travelling south when it crossed to the incorrect side of the road and collided with three other vehicles. The driver of the Commodore suffered fatal injures and died at the scene. The 38-year-old driver of a Nissan GTR suffered multiple fractures and he remains in hospital, while the 50-year-old driver of a Barina suffered a broken sternum and also remains in hospital. The third driver of a Ford was not injured." Good to hear, however still unfortunate that there was a death. Condolences to all involved, their friends and family. It's a shit section of road at the best of times.

Pezhead Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Maybe we should organise a hospital drive by cruise so he can at least hear the RB music Seriously though, if there is a DVD player in his room I can bring some videos of club events and I have a stack of motive DVD's I'm happy to loan him if he's going to be stuck in the hospital for a while. I know what it's like to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, but luckily I walked away with just some physio.
