Considering the rig, you would think everything is insured... Still a shit start to the morning though!! That last round a bout coming down the hill can pop up a lot quicker than people think... It's in a real pig of a spot!... Add the excitement of nearly being at the ramp and people tend to fly through there, regardless of what's behind them... I guess the only up side is that it looks like no one else was t boned as a result
Looks like he was going to turn left, boat kept on the straight run in and dragged the car around. Very lucky no one T boned the boat in the round about!!!
Too much brakes, too little distance, braking while turning, wet road, not sticking to your lane and the tyres were on the paint while braking, not paying attention, braking system not functioning.......
Anyone or a combination of these will bring you unstuck.
looks like no one was hurt. And that's good. The rest is only money.
yeah my boss saw it happen . coming down the hill a little fast into the rounderbout and wet road brakes and rear weighted boat no weight on the ass end of the car around she went and broke the draw bar. yes was an aluminium trailer

Considering the size of that
Considering the size of that boat and with an Oversize banner on it I'm guessing that would be over 2.5T
Not sure what insurance will say with the Kluger? only being rated to 2.5.

I am, as I've said, merely competent. But in an age of incompetence, that makes me extraordinary.
