 Hi all,

I seen a disaster on the dual carriageway between Holyhead and Chester (North Wales) yesterday Thursday 6th june at about 10.30am. A motorhome overturned (well lying on its side) on the east bound carriageway blocking both lanes.

We were in our van going the opposite direction and with nowhere to park up, we could not stop. However the accident had only just happened and there were already plenty of drives around the motorhome helping, I just hope that noone was badly hurt. It is possible that the van had only just come of the ferry and was heading into England. A real deisaster for the owners having their van recked just at the start of the summer.

When you see sights like this, it really brings home to you just what can happen if care is not taken.

Hi, I was in wales when this happened, and according to the local newspaper nobody was hurt ( well except the motorhome of course). It was in the newspaper because it caused a very long tailback on the A55 which is very busy at the best of times.
