Brass balls - interesting...

Most imported and locally built gooseneck trailers use a 2 5/16" ball on the deck arrangement and there's even some 3" units in from Aussie. TWL years ago sold 2 1/4" couplings & balls, so there's plenty of variation out there.

Pommy caravan?

Well, this will be of interest - was it the tow ball?

What interests me is the media now publishing names of people or businesses involved in incidents.
Sometimes very indirectly.
In this case before any investigation has been carried out.
