What about the Tassie kid that wore the towball and hitch the other day when the welding broke where the owner had welded the hitch into the receiver, now that was bad.

P.S.
A bit of info to clear up the guessing in relation to what occurred in the accident.

The vehicle the young lad was in was trying to snatch a vehicle from behind (reversing).

The tongue and square section that slides into the Hayman style receiver had been welded in the past. During the snatch the weld broke sending the tongue, ball and strap through the windscreen narrowly missing the driver, into the rear section where the lad was in the third row seat.

After hitting the lad it all continued smashing out the rear window. It had also come unhitched somehow from the front of the vehicle.

I hope this takes out the guess work and continues the discussion in relation to recovery points.

:( :( :( :(
