Reminder of what can happen

Just saw these pics on one of the firefighter forums I follow.

Couple on holidays in Bellingen NSW.

Fire started in the car and quickly spread to the van.

Luckily they were OK, but not much left of their pride and joy

Poor sods.

Just shows how quickly the fire can spread....a little extinguisher would be useless.

According to the Caravanners Forum, they didn't have WDH fitted causing the fire :lol::lol::lol:

I think that if you monitor that Forum you'll find instant experts appear at occasions like this and attribute all sorts of things despite no evidence of the accident cause having yet been demonstrated. I'm sure @stuartcarr2002 was "taking the don't be rude", so to speak.

Edit: Forum deleted "p**s" and converted it to "Don't be rude".

I'm at a loss as to how the lack of a WDH could cause a fire....or have I missed something?

Is that like putting a Chev badge on a Dunnydoor?
