It looked like a pretty pro rig, but anyway, cars falling off transporters is not one of the things I worry about too much. More commonly, I worry about vehicles kicking up stones and knocking out a tooth or taking out an eye. The wheels were set well back from the end of the trailer in this case, so rocks weren’t a concern. Instead, I worried about potholes popping into sight too quickly to avoid, however luck was with us today.

Also, it rained last night and was pretty damp, often muddy, and not at all dusty, so I wasn‘t eating dirt either.

But yeah, it was definitely a bit sketchy!
