I did a tyre at metal and waste in Edmonton once. You have a banksman either side, but on this occasion, one was too impatient to wait for his mate to come back from lunch. Did a ns rear tyre, which they paid for no questions asked
We have a nasty reverse, really tight dog leg umpteen hazards, bad enough in daylight bloody literal nightmare in the dark, two banksmen come out to watch you in…er no they don’t they only come out to stop the traffic (but that isn’t general knowledge), i came perilously close to snagging the nsr of me tank on something very immovable, would have gone through it like a tin opener, neither of the sods said a dickie bird
Have reported verbally to the relevant dept, but will remember (thanks for reminding with this thread) to put a written safety form in so those paid handsomely to sort such stuff can do so.
A window in the back of the cabs would make this type of maneuver 99% safer and easier.
Without doubt…
The best one was a teenage Spanish kid.
I only loaded once at this particular place in Alhama many many years ago. Had a left ■■■■■■ Skoda 4x2 with a tri-axle Chereau fridge.
Reverse up the steep hill, avoid the overhanging balcony, blind side with a really steep drop onto the loading bays. If you followed this kids directions, focused on nothing else and let him raise and drop the trailer for you (because you’d ground out otherwise) you’d do it in one hit.
If you didn’t, you’d still be there now.
i gave him some pesetas and two packs of marlboro
If you work on the basis that you’re the professional and the banksman is only there to shout STOP if he thinks you’re going to hit something, then you should be fine.
The professional in you should be able to manage a simple task even at low speeds.
Ouch honked bit harsh lol
