It's been raining here in the Okanagan part of BC quite a bit, so when last Wednesday started sunny I decided to go for a ride N along Lake Okanagan, then further, to Yankee Flats. Part of the route goes by a farm where the owner made a 'wind-sock' of Snoopy piloting a WW1 aircraft, but for this year he has 'updated' the paint job. Here's the OLDER one

and the CURRENT one.

I stop for lunch beside a creek (running pretty high right now!).

Between the lunch-stop and Snoopy I saw this

which I figure happened during the winter.

I rode thru a couple of light showers before arriving home after about 4 hours to ride 192.2 kms.

Awesome scenery. Except for the truck:(
I didn’t think litter was so much a thing in Canada?

Here's a better pic of that wrecked car (NOT a truck). I have no knowledge, but bet it happened over the winter.

Icy road, or impaired driver...? Or BOTH...?

Will it remain there forever? Or now that winter is over, maybe it'll be cleared...?

I can't answer THAT, except to say that I've seen other crashed cars that 'stayed there' for quite awhile....
it’d be stripped down, chopped up, and scrapped out overnight around here. We have lot of “environmentalists” around Detroit.

In the pic I posted, you can see that the rear wheel on the NEAR side is 'long-gone'.

Canadians think of everything, roadside-self service-used auto parts!
