On returning to North Wales on Monday night I passed a caravan that was parked upside down on top of an hedge about 6 foot off the ground. How did it get here ? A few miles further along the A55 a Swift Challenger had just been moved on to a low loader, the 4x4 that was towing it still in the carriageway. ( There was an 8 mile que behind, someone did their bit to help Caravan PR )As the latter was going down hill, was this speed, bad loading, incorrect weight ratio or just bad luck ?
Has anyone learnt from their mistakes and can they pass on any tips.
I for one had a blow out which was caused by a tyre failing despite reassurances that it was fine when the van was serviced. The moral was, ignore thrift and change your tyres within 4 years. The reason the dealer didn't change them was because he didn't sell tyres, but I didn't realise this until after the event.
