Jim McGarvie Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Holy crap! We'll probably never find out what happened, but it might be beneficial if we did. Tire blowout? Wind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan K Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 This looks very bad, what I am missing in the horrific picture is any sign of metal framing for the house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tim503 Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 (edited) This is why I bought a Windsor. I posted a video of a Jayco sideswipe in SoCal. People don't think of the steel cage until it happens. Our first motorhome my father bought to take us around the US was a 1972 28' Champion though. I always think how blessed we were not to get in a wreck. Of course it isn't always the owners but all the others on the road.

Bob Nodine Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Hard to believe anyone or the dogs survived that crash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck B 2004 Windsor Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 An excellent example when a coach goes down the blvd at a speed that is not safe for handling. I never drove my coach over 60 mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Cherry Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Obviously COVID-19 is impacting us. Maybe the driver was listening to Homer and Jethro's "Going 90 miles an hour when the chain on my bicycle BROKE". There is NO further (at least as of yesterday) on the condition of the folks that were in the MH or the police report as to the cause. THINGS happen..... We were stranded on I-73 North just south of Greensboro around Noon last Friday. A 56 YO Male crossed over There were cables on both sides) from the South Bound lane in a Toyota SUV (no model given) and collided with a North Bound Semi. The driver of the Toyota did not make it.....instant DOI. The driver of the truck was shaken, but not life threatening. The NC DOT closed the road. We were about 5 minutes behind based on the traffic. TOO CLOSE for my tastes. We had to get into the inside lane of the North Bound lane and then move over into the grassy shoulder (it was very wet and mushy) and do a 180 deg turn and go BACK UP the angled ON Ramp for a crossover. We were then routed through Level Cross, NC. If you were a NASCAR fan, you MIGHT recognize Level Cross. The First Station there is #43..... The fellow that drove that car for years built them the building, I was told (no research....makes a good story). The VFD labeled it as Station 43. I doubt that had another 42 scattered about.... PLAY NICE.....we are all a bit testy..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
