Don't tell Richard Hammond off Top Gear and Brainiacs you have one, his mission in life after watching Brainiacs is to blow them all up.
I got scared when a bloke was towing a caravan at 70 mph down the motorway. The caravan was going all over the place.
I don't mind caravans as long as the person towing them is an experienced driver and doesn't cause a hazard to all the others on the road.
I feel there should be test making sure they are able to tow a caravan before they are let out on the road.
You have to have a special license to drive a lorry.
NO
It wouldn't be so bad being stuck behind one but why are they always called something shitty like "Sprite" or "Swift"
It's taking the piss
The Gent has spoken lass.
Bought our first caravan 6 years ago and love the weekends we have away, however, when we first got it we brought it home, checked everything out, loaded it up and set off.On our arrival at the site we discovered that I'd obviously not tightened the skylight down properly and, not surprisingly, it wasn't there anymore. Just a couple of twisted brackets were all that remained. "Never mind, we'll fix it in the morning" we decided.What a mistake!! We suffered the heaviest downpour we've ever had whilst camping and spent the rest of the weekend trying to get everything dry!! Oops..Still, we got over it and had to laugh and still go regularly (with the skylight checked before each trip!! Hope you get as much fun out of it as we have.Good luck.
Good for you.
Can i just ask that when you see 10 cars behind you or even just one but he's been there for miles just please, please pull over when you can and let him past.
i'm sure most of the grief aimed at caravaners could be stopped by doing this simple thing.
You may have to clarify "caravan" for the ignorant Americans. We call them a trailer, or a camping trailer.
My husband and I used to go hunting with his boss & crew. The boss owned a large 4-wheel-drive pickup truck which carried a camper. We had a small 2-wheel-drive Toyota and towed our trailer. One winter, we decided to hunt in high country. There was a lot of snow, and the boss kept asking if we were concerned about getting stuck. My husband and I were both very capable drivers, and always answered "No, we're fine." When we got to the desired location to set up camp, the roadway was blocked. The only way in was to jump a narrow, deep ditch. The boss locked in his hubs, engaging the 4-wheel-drive and his heavy truck lumbered over the ditch, tipping and tilting, and looking like it was going to end up on it's side! We made a run for it, and our little truck, with 'caravan' behind it leapt over the ditch as if it were a gazzelle! We sprayed snow all over the larger truck as we wnet by when he stopped 'to help us' - And that was only the first of many embarrassing moments for the boss and his big truck vs. our tiny truck & trailer!
I think they should be taxed as other road vechicles.Regards Mick
When you get stuck behind a caravan you can bet that there is a Nissan Micra in front of it being driven by someone aged 146.
I always tow at the max speed limit.
What about all the yokels on tractors?
