Does anybody know of there was some kind of police chase going on at about 05.15 this morning around the Southwick tunnel area?

I'm only asking because just after I exited the tunnel this morning heading eastbound I pulled into the inside lane a few seconds before a car passed me in the outside lane going the wrong way! Added to that there was a couple of police cars rushing along the westbound carriageway with all lights flashing.

f***ing near shit myself. :censored:

You should have done the decent thing and had a head on collision to apprehend the criminal.

Thats DEFINATELY what I would have done.

coming back from Swansea last season along the M4 in Wales a car was going the wrong way. I swerved out of the way (almost having a seperate acident as i had to cut up an arctic lorry!) unfortunatly the driver going the wrong way had a head on killing two innocent people.

I remember that :eek: Luckily we were about 10 minutes in front of that incident. The maniac was intent on committing suicide I read later. :nono:

On my way to work for early shift and it's the same question I ask myself everytime I have to do early shift on a sunday.

Was it one of those Ice Road Truckers that took a wrong turn?

That sort of driving is known by Sussex Police as a "Micky Adams manuover" i.e going the wrong way at speed and heading for certain catastrophe.

Off topic a bit, but there has to be something going on in there. Got to be the best maintained tunnel in the country. Closed again this weekend, every time I drive through it I check to see if some of the bulbs have gone or there is some other reason for repairing it, there never is anything apparent. :shrug:

Yes, read the thread when it came up in the summer. But basically it was inconclusive. Needs somebody to camo up and do a recce. :moo:
