I saw that video and that was quite a painful sight to waatch.. I had to look at the video a couple of time in SLOW MO.. to see the cables and how the diverted the MH back away from the oncoming traffic.. That could have been REAL bad had the cables not been there..
anyone know the condition of the MH people..?? did not look good but you can never tell.

Don't get too complacent; if it is a front wheel on the tow vehicle, could be very bad. Last night on our news, a video, shot by adjacent truck driver, showed a motorhome that blew a front drivers side tire. He lost control, went into median, hit cable restraining barrier, turned over. He was towing a small pickup. This was all near Baton Rouge, LA. The cable restraining barrier probably saved some fatalities----never thought those things would help!
My Michelin Ribs on the tow vehicle are 6 years old with still good tread, but they are about to get replaced before my next RV trip!!
