    Whoa never hear of tie bars sheering; I guess like driveshafts that fail, the weak point starts from the centre.

    More of a reason to oversize with a RJ & tube I suppose.

    I'm glad you were able to walk away from that...

    There'll be other cars but you don't get many chances like that one.....

    Even worse when you say what happened. Very scary. Glad you're ok and it was only you in the car!
