If you wish still a bad day and it was a new deiver only started on monday and had a booboo.Well at least he got to go out to play in a c+e but sadly now jobless.At least he could drive that lol.
How did he get stuck after?
Was told he panicked got into mess then snowballed poor guy but we all make a mistake but the mk1 eyeball and mk1 tongue would work well if used.I.E ask the height of the trailer.
Fair enough I replied before you mentioned he was new.
Must of been horrendous for him, probably exactly what he didn’t want a few days in. Poor lad!

Did he quit or was he sacked? Sad either way considering no damage or injuries. (Obviously that statement is made without full knowledge of the facts.) We all make booboos.
What was told he walked from the job think he was a bit upset and he did try and say sorry but did get the crappy stick but still feel for him bot what he would have wanted in the first week of any job
At least he had the sense to stop. Poor bloke, I’m sure all of us had a few close calls in first week of class 1, and it’s a very thin line between getting away with it and having the entire world cave in on you!
Hope he picks up his keys again!
Poor bloke.
Where he did get stuck though, it’s a ‘Taxi only’ entrance / parking for the Central Station, where the Telegraph pub is too.
You still go to be careful round them parts anyway.
At the other end of Forth Street, there’s another low bridge, fine for you and your bulker, but anything sticking out and it catches the main rail bridge for the station.
On top of that, if you do bash that bridge, you’ll everyone looking out of the brand new shiny police station!
Seen many of them type of trailers leave something behind. One I do remember, was one carrying crushed scrapped cars. Stopped before bridge at the life centre layby, measured, and then went for it.
Metal on metal screeching! Talk about scraped through…
