One of the things I dread happened today.
M1 at night driving 7.5 ton lorry at 55mph and had full blow out on front tyre.
In future I will make sure I have....
Tyre sizes written down in the cab as trying to read them on the hard shoulder of the M1 in the dark by the light from a mobile phone with lorries blasting past 2 feet from me is NO FUN.
A fully working torch on board at all times.
Warning triangles I can put out well back from the horsebox.
A tube of sedalin. Horses can get very stressed during the 2.5 hourse it took to sort the problem out.
Big thanks to the traffic cops ....they were great.
