Around 9am, involving an unrecognisable dark hatchback (now covertible) and a arctic lorry outside the Shell Garage near the Braywick roundabout.

God help the people who were in the car, I pray they make it - their families will never forget this Christmas.

Be careful out there everyone.

Yep, right outside where I work. Massive tail backs frown

Edited to say still not sure how it happened, can only assume she lost control coming off the A308M slip road confused

Eek! yikes

The remains of the car don't look at all good. Can't even tell what it is/was.

Hope the occupants are ok.

...and another one! same place, same time this morning but no lorry involved, just two cars...not as bad as the one before Christmas but still ruined at least two peoples day.

Weird, I drive one this road most weekdays mornings, (and have done for 13 years) an only remember one other incident in that time, now theres been two in as many weeks.

I've just come back from there, 2 accidents within 15 minutes of each other, Civic Type R just being loaded onto the recovery truck when a Jag came round and did exactly the same thing!!! And 2 cars on the Jct 8/9 roundabout looking very sorry for themselves too.......

ETA Ross, were you driving a 05 plate Porsche??

On or near the roundabout? The problem is that the tankers come out of the Esso garage and drip petrol and diesel on the road surface especially on the actual roundabout itself because they tilt over on their suspension as they go round and any fuel remaining in the hoses spills out. Only happens because the garage is right beside the roundabout. Or at least that's my theory wink

On the Braywick Rd, heading into Maidenhead, coming off the roundabout.
