Since when is Topgear a better source of information than a caravaners handbook? :rolleyes:

Hmm. Let's drive a heavy load of unsecured farm animals down a steep slope with no training, while one of the passengers refuses to wear a seatbelt.

What could possibly go wrong? :rolleyes:

The Daily Mail ran this story as part of their now-daily attacks on the BBC, and as you'll see from the comments (if you click "show all"), even the majority of their own readers think it's mountain and molehill territory.

Also from the Daily Hate

I'm shocked and apalled! Of course I never actually watched it and never actually saw that it was obviously faked but those 3 overpaid goons faked something! My god they lied to us with our own TV licence money!!!! :angryfire

I love the fact that the Daily Mail believes very strongly in personal responsibility, yet immediately jumps on the bandwagon whenever there is the slightest suggestion of a 'copycat' element in an incident, whether in relation to Top Gear, any other TV programme, a video game or whatever. This would be described as psychosis in a human being, I'm sure.

Who actually listens to Top Gear seriously? Anyone who tows a trailer has responsibility to know how to tow, trying to blame an entertainment programme is stupid.
