Is there a bloke in the cab still playing a tune on his penny whistle & does it affect the key he’s playing in when sat at that angle

Yep!

Came round the roundabout too fast on the inside. Trailer cut in on the high kerb and over it went.

Was gonna say, something must’ve gone very wrong, or someone must’ve done something very wrong to get a load of road chippings on its side. Had wondered if the tipping gear had been left in, but obviously not.

I bet the driver of this Renault Premium thought his days were numbered as he lay in his bunk in a lay by and a truck came past and lost part of its load

Jacknife on the M26 a couple of years ago.

This MAN got stuck under a bridge in Birmingham and had to be pulled out backwards

Looks like he needs to go back under it to pull it back straight :laughing:

If it was only that simple!!

You don’t get much more damaged than these two, the unit on the yard was beyond repair and the FL7 in the garage had just had the engine reconditioned, the driver was due to collect the lorry the next morning, the fire was so hot that the aluminium body melted into pools on the floor and the tyres melted too making patches on the floor of rubber and aluminium all stuck together. There were various other vehicles in the garage and on the yard outside most of which were destroyed

My dad took these photos back in Nov 81 on the Italy/France Border, anyone out there have any more info

Its the French side of M.Blanc. The load is roped & sheeted bales of…stuff?Destined for Italia. Don,t think he would be allowed to go thru the tunnel with that abortion. Amazing he got that far. Electrical fire caused by drivers add-ons? or deliberately set alight to save further probs? :laughing:
