This sort of thing happened to a mate on a job we were on.This lady came along and saw the tractor and trailer on the road and decided she would reverse back down the road to let him by, she goes a little longer than tthe above person very badly and instead of going the extra 10 foot to a gateway where you could turn a 40ft lorry she decides to put it in the drain and gets stuck. So the guy in the tractor has to go and take off the trailer and pull the clown out.
Them trailers are a pain in te arse to be dropping and picking up with a JCB fastrack
Last time I was in England,
I was sat at the trafficlights waiting for them to go grean so I could enter a big series of roundabouts, (it's like 3 walkinstown roundabouts stuck together)
Any way as I'm sat there in the right hand lane, This (and I'm not exagerating) 100 yr old woman stopped beside me, on my right hand side (On the wrong side of the road)
Then the lights went green and she proceeded the wrong way around this hugh and very busy roundabout system, We could hear screeching tyres, and beeping horns as we went the right way around, and we met her the far side, sat in the middle of the road with her right indicater on waiting to turn right on the the road we were heading for!
I rang the gaurds with her reg number, and they said they were out looking for her already!
