Super Dan:
because there’s a pallet truck in there
Would it not go in the cab or is that illegal?
Don’t get those problems in my LWB ■■■■■■!
Not illegal, but would YOU want a pallet truck in your front room■■?

i’d love to see you lift it in there 
when i worked on goods in for a well known diy goods manufacture in the burton area i was called out to unload this truck full of polypro.
when the driver come to open his curtains the wind took it and smacked him full in the face with the curtain pole. this resulted in him having his nose smashed all over his face and knocking him cold out.
10 minutes later he was sat in the back of a ambulance on his way to casualty.
curtains are not to be played with in the wind

Or flying across the cab at your head in the event of an accident in which the vehicle rolls over?
I was in a hurry one evening, chucking it down with rain, had stepped in some spilt up diesel, was pulling my gear out the truck I “slipped” off the edge of the floor on the passengerside and whacked a dent in my leg 
If that wasnt enough as I had diesel on my boots i nearly took out the front gates when my foot slipped off the brake :oops:
Before you mention it was the next day we had a provision for sorting spilt diesel…
Thankfully I don’t have to worry about curtainsides anymore… But I know they can be a “pain” in windy weather. A colleague was in hospital for a few months when a breath of wind caught a door, snapped the holding chain and slammed in the back of him, he keeled over out cold
Always worth remembering anything loose in a cab or car can become a lethal weapon in an accident or even if you have to brake heavily. How many of us have a crock lock lose on the back seat, or that “steel bar for opening stuck containers” somewhere where it could go flying?
The Airfield, Melton Mowbray. Picture two of us being lifted off our feet when trying to do up the curtains on a step trailer. You soon learn to undo the leeward side first
