    I thought it was because it was good at sea b.
    I saw a quad bike that locked on fullthrottle when the granny reversed to show the littlies a snake beside the road. It spun round several times, in reverse at full speed, before flipping & throwing itself & the occupants down a small bank & through a horse fence. Granny & the 2 kids all escaped serious injury. I had to run up a hill to call 000 our emergency number.
