Re: Trailer Stories By:

A car I was in partnership with years ago went interstate with the other owner and a co driver.

At the race meeting the co driver blew the motor up then on the way home the trailer disconected itself off the coupling ( never put on properly I would say).
Anyway it broke away and ended up in a ditch upside down with the car still straped to the trailer (at least they got that part right).

They just left it there and went to the pub got stuck into the turps to help get over it.
Then went back the next day with a tow truck.
The roof on the car was down to the doors in one spot .

Lesson here always check the coupling is on.
