Had yesterday off work went back this morning to find my trucks [zb] again
The so called driver who had it done done all this damage and decided not to tell anyone so i came in in the morning and saw it straight away.
it turns out he hit a tree, he reckons he had to make a choice between hitting said tree or driving into the canal so i asked him why the [zb] he didnt just stop, now ive driven the truck down the same road loads of times and never had a problem i was also talking to an artic driver today who has taken a 40 footer down the same road and never had a problem
I tell ya im scared to have a [zb]ing day off anymore
heres some piccies for you
apparently he hit the tree with the front rh corner of the roof which has bent back about 8" and the lh front corner has bent back about 4" both rear posts have bent back about 6" the roof beams have buckled at the back and the floor has been pushed down at the back also
And guess what HE’S STILL GOT HIS [ZB]ING JOB

PS i now have to drive the company snotter until mine is fixed
I have to say,I was fortunate when I was on holiday in June.I had 3 1/2 weeks off,and when I came back,not only was my wagon in one piece,but the inside was clean too,and all from 1 agency driver.
Now at the moment,I’m in the office,showing them how to do it,and may be for 3 weeks,and the same agency driver currently has my unit,so hopefully the same will occur.
I had a delivery down the same road today so i took some piccies for you to look at because im [zb]ing baffled to how he managed to hit a tree
This one is on the way down as you can see on this stretch the road is plenty wide enough (a car passed me on the way down) as you get further down the road narrows and as you go under the bridge you have the canal on the right and the bridge wall on your left but there is ample room to get through (no width restrictions on road just a height restriction of 13’ 9" )
This one is on the way back still plenty wide enough
This is the narrowest part of the road now the trees brush against the sides of the truck but there is’nt any that are huge and overhanging
Now my guess is he drove down the road saw the bridge didnt think he could get through width wise so bumped up the kerb on the right side but forgot about the height of the bridge being 13’ 9" the truck being 13’ 7" and the kerb say 5" and he hit the bridge with the top front right corner
Definately looks like the bridge, theiraint any trees thick enough to do the damage.
On a better note I got my truck back just as I left it
there is a god
