Non-Believer Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Mountain Rd closed until further notice due to snowfall. Crashed car blocking Whitebridge Hill in Onchan but expected to be cleared shortly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryFuchwit Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 A couple.of observations from a trip over last night. The driver of MAN 91 (a Nissan XTrail) is a whopper and an accident waiting to happen. It looks like the "speed it up to Windy Corner, turn round and race back" people are about again.

I travel this route regularly and the driving up there recently has been hideous. I was overtaken couple weeks back by a van, there was an oncoming vehicle and I was going at 45 or thereabouts (slow but driving to conditions). I wouldn’t care if they went off the side but do not endanger others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Non-Believer Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Yes, 33rd Milestone, I've just been diverted off at the Creg, 2nd time in a couple of weeks now. No injuries apparently but Police now advising of 3hr road closure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shake me up Judy Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 (edited) Bloody hell ! How far is that from the road ? I'll bet even Flinty hasn't seen one go that far. That must have been some speed to get all the way down there through peat bog and heather. This doesn't look good.

Also, Some decades ago I was driving along there on a hot morning and there were mirages, almost drove off the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shake me up Judy Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 But that's some velocity to get that far. It doesn't look good for whoever was in the car. Emergency vehicles will struggle to get down there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
