I've been sideways at the same junction taking it very easy in the wet and my gf saw a yellow s2k written off a year ago - lethal junction in the wet
Sorry about the car, but glad everyone is ok

Have only recently noticed you posting, mainly because your name registers as German Shepherd to me. 
Sad to hear of your bad luck. Sure it has been a bonding experience for you and your son but one that you could both have done without. Thank Goodness you have both survived it unscathed.
Cheered that the incident hasn't put you off the S2000.

Sorry to read this, the main thing is you and your son are ok!
Surprising to read the comment from the HighwaysAgency staff!! grr..
May I ask how fast you were going in 3rd just as you were about to switch up to 4th?

cool as a cucumber one of the HA guys says to me that this is a regular event for rear wheel drive cars just at this point on the road.
Glad you are both okay.
More impressed you didn't blame the car/diff/tyres/Honda.
As that would be a mistake.

No consolation I am sure but have also had a sideways moment at that junction too but not too damp and recovered OK. Sorry to hear it, glad you are both OK - have a 12 yr old son too so can imagine it would shake you up. Best of luck.
