I am lying here writing this recovering from having my lorry ramp fall on me. Soemone reversed into my lorry at a sho and pushed the underfloor spring hanger backwards. When I unwittingly opened the ramp the srping came off and the ramp fell on me. I am lucky it did not kill me. If ever your ramp brackets are damaged be very careful - and never ever stand underneath a ramp when opening it. The pain will remind me never to do it again!

Crikey, scary stuff.
Whenever I hire a trailer or lorry the lady I hire from tells me to remember to stand to one side when opening and closing the ramps.

Oh my word, so glad you are OK! A good reminded to be careful of ramps. My front trailer ramp hydraulics have gone, and although I can lift it on my own I forget when I first open it and always get a surprise when it drops on me! It will be getting fixed next service.
