RV rolls over steep cliff as RVer walks dog
July 15, 2009

Sheriff deputies in Lincoln County, Ore., say an RVer stepped out of his motorhome at Depot Bay last Sunday afternoon to walk his dog and then watched helplessly as his 36-foot Sea Breeze motorhome rolled over a steep cliff along the Pacific Ocean.

According the owner's report to deputies, the motorhome's brakes somehow failed. The RV rolled over the cliff, eventually stopping midway down the 100-foot rocky slope just off U.S. Highway 101.

The 79-year-old man was not injured (nor his dog), but the RV was stuck on the sharp rocks. A heavy-duty tow truck was called to pull the RV back up to the road.

There was no report on damages.
