This is what can happen on gravel roads, combined with a front heavy 4x4 pick up truck.
I was driving home with my Son at a steady 40mph when the rear end of the truck started to have a mind of its own, I wrestled with it for probably 300 yards when it finally got the better of me and threw us sideways through a barbed wire fence to its resting place, pretty lucky it did'nt roll to be honest, on another day I think it would have.





Could have worse I guess, could have been my truck Still the Father in law took it quite well

Woops, glad your not hurt Jezzie!

not good matey!
glad your both okay though! could have been a lot worse!
nice truck btw!;)

Thats a pretty hard knock until you can break the axle.

IT must be a punctured tyre for the car to sway like that.

If in a Cit never can this happen.

I have had countless tyre blowouts highest at
85mph in my GSA and CX and nothing happenned just
slight shake at the st. wheel.
Anyway tahnk god you n son are ok.

Yeah could have been a blow out I guess I did not hear that rear tyre blow but it was flat after the crash, but that could have been the impact !
Anyway the truck is all repaired now and looking like new again....total cost $15000, I wont ever drive it again though
