The problem is, what does "take care" actually mean? You could ask 6 people and get 6 different answers. For me, take care means don't take your eyes off the other driver, and always drive defensively.

Gary hi 

I drive by my back side mostly.

Dad  drum in to us to watch what the other person was doing, I think it was good advice I generally had a habit of not listening.

Once again keep safe. Cheers

Lucky for me...I was going in the opposite direction or I would have been very late to work...

....Good to see that the caravan was not a wreck....

Typical busy friday traffic in that area

 

THE Bruce Highway has reopened after a six-vehicle crash closed all the southbound lanes and one northbound lane during peak lunchtime traffic.

The crash closed multiple lanes of the highway for hours, causing "extreme" traffic delays.

However, motorists can still expect delays on the major road.

Six vehicles were involved in the accident, one of which was towing a caravan.

The accident happened about 10.40am.167572-accident-bruce-highway.jpg

The latest is that a ute coming in the opposite direction crossed over the center verge and into oncoming traffic.

I feel for all those involved including the response personnel.

Must agree with the last couple of comments.

Strange hoe the level of "guru" might now need to be inappropriate!
