Just goes to show the fragility of the big plastic boxes we all love to tour in.

This is a translation of the news article:

A vacationer from Great Britain came off the road with his mobile home in Lobmingtal on Saturday and fell about 80 meters over an embankment.

A 61-year-old from Great Britain drove his mobile home on Saturday around 7.15 p.m. on Gaberl Straße B77 from Köflach in the direction of Judenburg. Suddenly, for reasons currently unknown, he left the road on the right and fell about 80 meters over an embankment several times. The camper caught fire

The 61-year-old was able to free himself from the vehicle and was found lying next to the mobile home, conscious. After first aid by the rescue workers, the man was taken to the LKH Graz by the rescue helicopter Christophorus 17. The mobile home caught fire after the rollover and had to be extinguished by the Kleinlobming, Großlobming and Apfelberg volunteer fire brigades.

Just coming back from Austria, been to mountains & lakes area, Bad Ischl, Gmunden, Autersee, Wolfgang. Only saw 1 UK registered moho in 3 weeks. Some mountain passes can catch you out if not prepared & driving with caution. Not saying anyone at fault, but we came down some pretty sleep inclines, mindful of overheating the brakes by keeping a low gear, even so 4 tonne can pick up a fair bit of speed unless checked.
Anyway, hope all involved make a decent recovery.
