Get up the driveway to work and see smoke pouring out of the engine bay, coolant everywhere. Looks like a blown radiator. Second subaru, second blown radiator

Having the flu since Saturday and having spent the last 2 nights coughing so much I've thrown up multiple times and only gotten a few hours sleep. Meh!

Changing first to second to find no second gear , put car in third go to change to 4th WTF no 4TH. Get really excited thinking yes time for six speed . Get car home have a look under it and the long threaded stop arm bolt that you replace the round bushes on to make stiffer has sheared off half way.

WTF.

Grab spare bracket out of shed and replace it . Everything good changes great dreams of six speed smashed for now ..........

do you think it was the guy in front that got snapped or was it me?
I would be quite pissed off if it was me as I am sure I was under the limit at that time.

The characters after = in the url, put them in the YT tags.
(YT)characters(/YT) where ( and ) = [ and ] respectively.

Correct.

Assuming that the GPS reading was accurate, the speed limit for the road was 70km/h and you were in the speed calculation zone.
I would hazard a guess and say no, you didn't appear to be going over the limit.
