Default Were there a lot collisions?

HI

Some place I remember hearing/reading that more MVs were destroyed by collisions than enemy action. Now this may be just a myth. Wonder how many of those accidents were driving with blackout conditions.

But after having driven my HUP on just blackout lights on may an occasion, including many convoys it is a low speed operation. With a HUP speaking from having lead a couple of blackout trailrides, the first thing you open the windshield so that you are not looking through the glass.

Now back, Ilian's post interesting read.

Cheers Phil
