Fail, me thinks

Obviously forgot the road commandments. In particular:

"Thou shalt not challenge road trains on narrow bridges."

I was in FNQ & saw one coming my way as I was heading downhill to a bridge over a creek. Up in that part of the country, the roads are only a lane and a half of asphalt to start with, and the bridge was only the width of the sealed road. I saw a wide patch of dirt off to the left, so swung over, pulled the handbrake & slid to a stop sideways facing the road. (Just for fun.)

Roadtrain acknowledged my good sense with a wave as he went past without having to worry about dodging, (or cleaning out the grill!)

He would have appreciated not having to stop before heading up the hill.

Yeah, that's not going to polish out! And I can only imagine how much more damage they did separating them afterwards as it looks like it's wedged in there nicely.

you can totally tell how much that road train was shifting forwards and with the weight behind it also look at the back of the Toyota along the guard rail ?

look at the damage to the rear left. that's not just been bumped into the rail that's been shunted and dragged....
