Don't know if this has already been posted. If it has mods can remove it.

Check your trailer height

I think the driver might have got out of this OK - because the trailer hits on the left corner. I don't think the roof squashed the whole car.

It’ll never happen. Spinning wheels, antisocial behaviour, you can thank wowsers like Screwbie and the advertising standards council for stuffing everything up in this country.

What is the little shimmy that she does supposed to be? Is that common in Oz? I've been to many cruises and a number of car shows. I've seen a lot of reactions, but I've never seen anyone do "whatever" that was......and I just don't get it. Usually you can tell what someone is thinking when they comment or gesture about a car. I have NO IDEA what's in this woman's head.

Hey, I am easily amused. It makes entertainment cheap!

She was obviously taken aback that her little performance was caught on tape.
