This is the strange moment three vehicles broke down in quick succession on the A55.

Highways officials had their work cut out on Sunday afternoon after the vehicles broke down on the eastbound carriageway while climbing Rhuallt Hill.
The hill's incline clearly proved too much for the motors, one of which was towing a caravan.

I have never got involved with modern ! "Crowdfunding" , some requests seem quite genuine and necessary, others I am not so sure, take the case of the above, the people who parked their vehicles on the beach yesterday and got stranded, are asking for a fund of £20,000 (of which they have received £4,000 so far) to get their private business up and running again, I do not agree with this and I think it will harm genuine requests, is this me being uncharitable ?

I had a walk today with a friend who lives in that area and I believe that there are signs warning drivers about parking their vehicles on the beach
I was also advised that the local farmer pulls the vehicles off the beach when they are stuck and charges £100.00 for that service.  Whether her vehicle insurance covers the loss is another matter but coughing up £100.00 is better than the alternative
