Caravan sway

I see that today's GN story is about two accidents over the long weekend involving caravans and sway. Such incidents occur far too often. By the same token, a lot of GNs on the forum have been towing a rig for many years and many thousands of kilometres without incident, so what's their secret?

Caravaners doing the wrong thing
(Preview)
We wonder why we as a group are not wanted in some areas. This sort of thing gives us all a bad name. ...and then there is the grey water. There is a large parking area just outside the car park where they could have parked and let the grey water run out onto grass.

Cheap and Easy way to find the weight on your tow ball
(Preview)
At the moment Aldi have digital bathroom scales for $9.99 can weigh up to 180kg's so no good for the larger van, these have a glass top so would probably need a piece of ply to spread the load, but with a bit of 2 by 4 timber under the tow ball receiver and lowered down onto the scales, hey presto you know the w...
