This image appeared in yesterday's paper. No idea how old the picture is as the article was about reversing cameras on caravans but I hope it wasn't someone here getting their happy snap taken.
Wow, looking at the sports bar and roof racks, looks like the whole thing rolled.
That was a double axle van. Unlikely a tyre would tip it over...
If only that was true. I followed my brother to Echuca from Bendigo and watched as a tyre blew on his dual axles caravan. Which then threw him across the hwy and back and ended up next to the train tracks. Lucky it was three in the morning so no other traffic. Scared the crap out of me, and i was 50m behind him.
Wrecked his two bar on a 100 series cruiser and destroyed the van which dislodged from the tow bar when it whip lashed back across the hwy and rolled in to a tree.
I always make sure my tyres are schmick on any thing I tow now
I've seen truckies hit every single tyre (of their rig and trailer) with an IRON bar every time they leave from a truck stop, or rest area when i've been driving intersate.
