I had 2 ponies in my Ifor 510 and my 2003 X trail and it snaked and overturned on the A1 going north down a hill in a medium to high wind.
Everyone was fine inc ponies and car. Trailer was a write off I use stabilisers now. But this should not have happened. I dont want criticism of the trailer, or the car, everything was legal. Perhaps better combinations could have been made, but I dont need those suggestions I just wonder how it happened? |
