Looks like someone might have fallen out at around 45-55 seconds.

Well if he'd of wiped out the guy with the camera or any other person, the he would be a real hero..

I may be wrong, but what the hell was the camera car doing hogging the fast lane?

Doesn't make the M3 driver right for undertaking (which I think may actually be legal in some countries) and driving too quick.
Sideways yo!

Near enough exactly the same happened to my wife in our 325i coupe. She wasn't speeding, just hit standing water and the rear lost all adhesion with the road!

 :confused:  I hope you don't live in a glass house.  :fighting2: You know absolutely nothing about this incident so how can you judge so harshly.  :booty:

Ah!, lane hoggers, becoming more and more prevelant.  :fighting: I often wonder why these people do it. Apart from the woman a bit scared to travel with the lorries i think most of them are bitter people who think they own part of the road because they pay road tax or perhaps they struggle to hide the green monster when they see cars go past that they clearly can't afford. I think we can all see the lane hogger in this thread.  :wink:

It's a bit of that, but I seriously think a lot of people just don't realise they're in the wrong.

And nor do you, so let's leave it like that.. :confused:

Driving too fast for the conditions regardless if the car with the camera was staying in the outside lane.

You don't just loose control of a rear wheel drive car unless you unlucky enough to suffer a puncture.

It's pretty obvious the car aquaplaned. That doesn't necessarily mean he/she was driving too fast.

Complete tosh as usual from you. Andrew above has just told you it happened to his wife. I myself coming back from a track day, was only saved by the traction control, and i was just in the flow of traffic.  It can only take a moments lack of concentration at the wrong time.
