Driving in strong winds

[Lenny HB]

Just back from walking daughter's dog along the beach, couldn't go at my own speed I was blown along somewhat faster than intended.

Looks like it was blown off the road then turned over on the slope.... Its a long way from the road.

He probably thought it was the landfill.

We LDV high top owners don't talk about high winds. I was down to 25 mph a while ago in high winds. I'm thinking of adding a tool box to lower the centre of gravity.

maybe ... I've grown up

Are you sure you have grown up, if you haven't by the time your 50, you don't have too.

Earlier today a bin wagon blew over on the Isle of Man...

Going by the pic looks more like went onto soft ground at edge of road .

Well past the 50 mark, passing the the next decade in a disgraceful manner

Surprised that bin wagon was "blown" over, driving through trees like that, I would have thought it would have been sheltered from any gusts ?

Hi.
NO. Old lorry drivers NEVER grow up. Retired,did a trip over Tintwistle (Yorkshire) with a double decker trailer carrying Foam as a favour....... Windy...?Ended up on its side blocking the road,two rescue crews came,one from Manchester one from..BARNSLEY...Ooo Errr ( They eat their young in Barnsley !!)... Elected to go to Barnsley Hospital,because i could nearly walk home from there....Grow up ? NO CHANCE. "Cummin' Throooo ". ? ? ? ? ? ?
Your " Buttocks" will tell you when to "Pull into the wind". When it cannot grip the seat anymore...THATS when you pull up.

That’s not very strong winds is it??

I had to check I wasn't wrong and converted 33mph into kms/h with internet ... When I went to the DREAL from Toulouse to Brives to get my certificate of conformity , I was quite a novice and I had 110kms/h during 176kms non stop . But after all as you would say Chris...I'm just a crazy frog
