Not really grumpy, but a bit sad: spotted a smouldering 1971 VW camper van on the M5(N) today while we were going south - as we were in a works car, we turned around at J5 to see if we could assist but by the time we reached it (only 3 or 4mins) it was obvious our thermos-flask sized fire extinguisher was going to be no goodAll we could do was offer moral support to the driver and his wife while the four of us watched the flames take over
We were safely out of the way when the gas bottle exploded
The Fire Brigade and Highways turned up soon after There wasn't much left at the end Sad

In this instance it had not long been re-wired... hmm? Mainly it is because of old wiring giving up or fuel leaks from old lines (or even the pump) spraying onto the hot exhaust
However, I think one of the reasons they appear to be involved in a lot of roadside fires is that people recognise and remember seeing campers, where they would most likely forget or not even know the make of car engulfed on the hard shoulder
Bay window No spare Another chap had stopped but his extinguisher wasn't up to the job eitherOwner (Sam) said, "When I saw the flames I grabbed my guitar and got the wife out..."
Good to see he had his priorities right!![]()
