Chocolate milkshake anyone?

[Riff Raff]

Couple of pics from a truck rollover I went to last night (driver was fine).

Thought the sign on the front was a bit of humour.

And for some strange reason I couldn't get anyone to accept my challenge to do a road suck of the chocolate milkshake spilling out of the truck.

I really like the first one.......

[crashe]

I really like the first one.......

EDIT: Pics are now there to be seen.... :rofl:

[bugjuice]

[Fishy]

Yeah chocolate milk, road tar, tyre rubber and dirt might actually make a good mix eh!.

Oh I think I may have gone past it heading south after the meet with LB.

Was it on the motorway on ramp heading north?.

OOps! Bet he's popular with a few people right now, NOT! Hope he's okay, though.:nono:

Yes it was.

And for everyone's information, it was caused by the rear axle deciding it didn't want to play the game anymore. You can see me casting my professional and expert (ahem) eye over it in the picture. It was quite munted.

rear axle looks more like it's an active axle - ie, it steers. The truck turned over mid-corner, so the axle is still steering.. Both wheels are at similar angles, and the axle has more things to it (steering components), compared to the other two axles

Plus it was being dragged along the ground, which would help to turn it. They have "passive" steering to help them go round corners, makes turning easier and cuts down on tyre and road wear.
