Murphy`s Law strikes again

Well at least he didn`t break the truck frame........., He ripped the slide right off the camper, Didn`t check his rearview mirrors obviously. Not sure I would follow this type of camper either.

That’s a shame. I hear people say that Article Fox is a pretty good brand. When we had a slide in camper it was legal for someone to be inside as long as there was an intercom (maybe still is?) I wonder if someone pushed the wrong button or if he just got to close to or was forced into the bridge structure and it caught the slide and ripped it right out.
Heart break any way you look at it. Hopefully no one hurt.

Unhappy

Maybe his slide somehow came out and he wasn't watching his right side mirror, but he should have been hugging the center line and checking the right side. Camper totalled and hopefully no damage to truck.
