Talking to a TM at a heavy haulage company a few years back he was showing me his map with all the bridge heights marked on & the dtours to take to avoid the 16’. 6’’ on the motorways.
He also told me about one conversationb with Old Bill where he needed an ■■■■■■ for a load which was just over the 100 ton limit. Old Bill moaned about being busy & suggested he did the same as “everyone else” & run it as 99 tons.
Another heavy haulage TM moaned that getting drivers was far easier than getting drivers who could drive.
