This didn’t end well.
The first rule of offroading is stay away from flooded roads and tracks. Last week I saw a B Double in North Queensland which looked like it had been swept of the road. In this video, the road base had obviously been washed away and once the trucks weight was on in it just fell away. Apparently he was on his way to the east coast from the north west to get a 5” diameter snorkel fitted. It’s the wet season right now and when it rains there it really rains hard.
It’s sad to hear but hopefully a lesson others can learn from.
