@@XxAtomic646xX well, you couldn’t of expected him to drive off the road and follow it !! I’m very proud of my dad. I’m sure he saves somebody’s life that day.
@@rcnelson Some dashcams can detect "crashes" or other sudden movement of a vehicle and save the footage (always recording but only saves video to the SD card when it detects an incident). Perhaps it getting knocked off the trailer or hitting that bump before stopping could have triggered it if that is the case
That was the most exciting short video. Great plot great action and a protagonist I was rooting for, with a happy ending: better than most movies I’ve seen lately.
This jeep has been well trained. We trained our own jeep over a period of two years and it really made a huge difference in terms of our jeeps obedience.
When we lived in Florida and were traveling I75 one day taking an on off ramp. Along side the road a big RV had pulled over. He too had a dolly attached (with a strap hanging) and he was scratching his head and looking around in a worried way. It was probably the first turn he had taken in quite awhile where he could actually see the vehicle he was/wasn’t towing. Quite a surprise I would think.
Yeah if someone was behind the wheel, they would have over reacted the moment they hit the grass to avoid any on coming non existent semi trees that could hit them then somehow would have tuned into a multi vehicle pile up, multiple roll overs, a dear being hit, a head on collision and a semi tanker catching fire then leading to a wild fire lol
At first he didn't realize it was his. With his wife driving, he rolled the passenger window down and was heard yelling to the jeep.. Hey Dip$h!t !! Buy an RV an just tow the sumbitch! Hella lot cheaper! What's that honey?
@@phildavenport4150 did we watch the same video?? Yes not right away but it'd be REAL hard for the jeep to have passed the rv if the rv was just still cruising at 70mph like you claim lol
Once saw a 2 horse trailer didn't have any horses come off on the freeway in Southern California going about 75 mph. It went for while then spun around about 15 times eventually coming to a stop traffic was light everyone jammed the breaks I was 2nd car behind it looking back for someone to rear end me didn't happen. Guy didn't have any safety chains said he was trying to get to home he bought it sight unseen went to pick it up had no chains.
Talk about LUCKY !!!!! Happened to us one time with our jeep in tow using a blue ox towbar. luckily, only one bar came loose as one of the latching pins had came out. immediately switched to a double locking pin.
She’s got enough skid plates underneath her that she can easily survive a rock or two, possibly even three like that without doing much injury to the suspension/drivetrain.

When ever you tow/haul anything, you should stop every 100 miles or when ever, to check all fasteners/hitches/etc. Especially after the first so many miles, things get out of adjustment, even check the hitch ball nut to see if it needs tightening.
At least every fuel stop...drove across country pulling other peoples cars/belongings several times now and at every stop, things needed to be re-tightened....plus we still had safety chains on everything, never lost 1 yet

I got a tow dolly. I have towed many vehicles. You must check and recheck EVERYTHING, you see and in your mind. I have CDL's, do a pre-trip and post trip. Do a load check on your trip, wet or dry. And always add a safety chaining from the dolly to the vehicle. I will say it looks like to me the wheel straps are not in place or not place right. And no safety chain in place.
New title: "Dashcam video of Jeep coming off dolly behind RV... and safely parking itself"😂. For a completely helpless situation that could have ended terribly, that was a miraculous outcome!
Lucky. My jeep came unhitched after 50 miles on my hill driveway rolled across 4 lane hwy into a ditch without a scratch. You got pure luck on that one.
I've owned several tow dollies over the years, every one of them had either a safety strap or a short chain and hook in the middle that would prevent roll off in such a case. My last one had a turnbuckle that was bolted to the dolly and a hook and a short strap on the top. I'd hook that to something solid and crank it down a bit, even if the wheel straps fell off, it wasn't coming off the dolly. My bigger fear was a car jumping forward on a panic stop because there was no way it was breaking that chain or strap unless something severe like a roll over or crash occurred. When my first set of straps started to look worn, I replaced them with a four ratchet system with four wheel loops. for the vehicle to come off the ramps, all four would have to fail. Its a bit more work but a whole lot more peace of mind.
Wife, looking out the RV passenger window: "Oh honey look! Somebody with a Jeep just like ours is doing some off-roading right here by the freeway! What are the odds?!"
Been there and done that with a boat, Went fishing with a buddy who was driving and next thing the boat is next to us. it also did the same and stayed in the V of the ditch, we hooked it back up and finished our fishing trip.
I saw a motorcycle do something similar once. It just kept rolling and rolling and missing everything until it gently lay itself down in some roadside bushes. It was barely even scratched.
