Someone getting it wrong? ‘‘Twas that guy Taylor, wasn’t it?
It looks like a silly mistake but just before it is a very deceptive, off-camber kink over a blind crest. A few others made similar mistakes but gave up on trying to pull it back in time for the cattlestop and just went wider through the fence instead (and stayed shiny side up).

No thats not the road!
A long time ago, and in a river far far away........
Stuck in the mud or were you unlucky enough to hydraulic it?
Seeing as nothing better to do here's a few stucks
This one not me but yeah bet he had an interesting conversation with the boss
My old cruiser up to it's nuts in guts
My mates massive 80 series on a seemingly dry riverbed...
The "dry" river bed after I winched him out
Being a dick in my current 4x4 only time it's ever been stuck
A little too deep for the jet boat recovery....had water up over the center console before I got pulled out .....
Stuck in the mud, left it running till we got out with a tow. Stripped out the insides at the hut and left to sit in the sun for a couple of days while we went hunting. The irony of escaping without real harm was the engine shitting itself on the way out and stranding us. Needed towed all the way to Tekapo. My mate walked out to Lilybank, and discovered a bloke we knew was Station manager at the time, we'd been wallaby shooting with him the week before - he towed us back to Lilybank Station, the chef made us tea and we stayed the night while Beade told us stories about the clients. Next day is us swinging on a towrope in a swollen river crossing for two braids, thank fuck it was an old 40 series cruiser towing, scary. The garage at Tekapo pulled down the engine and fixed it, it had been fully reconditioned prior to our trip, they had fucked up reassembly and it had dropped conrod nuts- yes plural, nuts......... the shop in Dunners picked up the tab. Couple of dirty shifty looking blokes with guns getting on a bus in Timaru to get home! Imagine trying that now
