Pic Fails.

Here's your chance to post those wonderfully disastrous picture fails.

My first offering: A photo bomb instigated by a territorial wattlebird.

Hmm...Fraser coast always got something to offer...especially for Mercedes SUV drivers

Too many of those bloody big pies from Eurong Bakery and Cafe maybe

One way of flushing your hard earned cash.

Out of honest interest as I live nowhere near legal beach recreational driving.
What does happen these days if you were to unfortunately swamp and loose your vehicle in the ocean like this?
Is there any salvage fees besides insurance recovery I’m guessing and or possibly extra environmental fines thrown at you like the ship disasters on a mega scale?

I don't know the fine print but as far I know it's the same rules apply as if you wreck your car in the high country for example. It's gazetted/designated so you have every right to be there

I believe there are very few areas in Vic you can legally get onto the beach now - 90 mile beach has tightened up and there used to be a smallish beach down the Otways you could get onto in the late '80's if you were fishing. If its gazetted as legal access, you should be covered, if not, reckon it could be a hard discussion with the insurance company.

There is a small section you drive along the beach down at Sandy point before entering Wilson's prom.
Drive along the beach is less than 1km and it is only there for you to get to and from a boat launching channel.. Seen a few people get caught out there a few times. Heavy boats . Standard tyre pressures ..

I think Nic would be on the money here, if its a designated area for beach driving you will be covered, if its not then you have no hope with insurance.

When I tipped my GQ on its side many moons ago, although it was an area starting 2 get shut down, gates put up everywhere 2 stop access etc it was still classified as a gazetted road at the time and insurance repaired the damage, thankfully

I believe and I could be wrong but insurance will only pay if the vehicle can be recovered and if it’s an illegal place then your screwed
