Expert gives tips for a good start to the caravan holiday
Original source: avisen.dk

Georg Nielsen, managing director of Continental Dæk Danmark A/S, advises checking tyres, tyre pressure and load on both car and caravan before departure. Incorrect pressure increases fuel consumption and reduces grip, while old tyres may be unsafe even if they look fine. Heavy items should be placed low and close to the axle.

Expert advises checking tires and load before caravan trip

Before the start of the season, caravan owners are advised to conduct a thorough inspection of their vehicle. Particular attention should be paid to the condition of the tires: even with sufficient tread depth, old or cracked tires over five years old can lead to a puncture. It is also necessary to check tire pressure, the operation of headlights, brake lights, and the handbrake.

75-year-old stopped in motorhome with knife and drugs in Denmark

On Thursday evening at around 23:40, police in Rødbyhavn stopped a British motorhome that had just disembarked from a ferry. The cabin smelled of hashish, and a drug test showed the 75-year-old driver was under the influence of THC. During a search, officers found a knife tucked into his belt and nearly 16 grams of cannabis. The man was arrested and charged with driving under the influence, violating the knife law, and the controlled substances act. The Danish Immigration Service will decide whether he should be deported.

Lottery winner buys new caravan but forgets the car

A woman from Central Jutland won 1 million Danish kroner in the lottery and quickly ordered a new caravan with separate beds and a joystick control. However, she overlooked that her car could not tow such a heavy trailer, so she had to invest in a new car as well. This is not the first such oversight for the couple: previously they bought a car without a tow bar, and after installing one, they found it still couldn't tow their then-caravan.
