    Default Car VS Trailor!

    Well, i was sitting at an intersection wanting to turn left. I look to the right to see if any cars were coming. I see something change lanes. A TRAILOR! a big gardening trailor without a car in front of it.
    There were cars in front of me so i couldnt move, i just wtched as it come towards me at 80 kays an hour.
    Hits the middle island gets air and smashes the give way sign to the ground....



    and hits the car behind me, leaving not a single scratch on my car.

    LUCKY!!!!!!!!

    lucky for you, and everyone else in between who didnt get hit..

    not so lucky for the poor guy behind you...

    I hope the cops caught who the trailer belonged to and gave him every possible fine and then some.

    A trailer that came off a truck nearly wrote off my car (for those of you who remember) theres pics floating around...

    Its so dangerous... and it only takes a minute to make sure youve got your trailer secured, if you cant or dont know how DONT USE ONE!

    Lucky break though

    Safety chain is normally attached to the towbar, which is still attached to the trailer, not uncommon for an old towbar to snap clean off when the wrong load has been put on, also shows why you should balance a trailer correcty.

    yeah, some of the way ppl load things on trailers/utes is astonishing...ive been taught the right ways due to my dad being a truck driver, but in saying that without being taught anything surely common sense should pervale?

    Thats lucky.

    I remember only a couple of weeks ago, waiting at a set of traffic lights, car coming the other way turns right then all of a sudden the trailer decides to u hook its self from the car half way round the bend, & coming straight 4 my car, no cars behind me, so i reverse, just as i did a car pulled up in the lane next to me & hit the trailer as it went through my lane.
