Found three illegals in the trailer Thursday morning on my way back from Dortmund.Parked up near Lille,Belgium on Wednesday night,heard the load shifting when I did my walkaround Thursday morning so opened the doors up to find three blokes hiding in the back.Chucked them out with the assistance of the giant of a Czech driver parked at the side of me and a couple of wheelbraces,turned out they had gone in through the roof and sewed it back shut using a pair of shoelaces.I think they should have paid a bit more attention to the hazardous diamonds on the trailer though,class 6.1 doesn’t do you any favours when you lie on it breathing the dust in half the night,they were busy chucking up like champions in a field when I left.
Fair play for getting them out, isnt Lille in France ?

Bit of luck someone will throw them some shovels,and they can help out finishing those never-ending roadworks there!
Them roadworks are a right pain in the arse!And yes there is a Lille in France,but there is also a Lille in Belgium

Hi TezzDemon,
The way that the hazard placarding system works is that it gets past foreign languages by the use of universal colours, numbers and little pictures on the placards.
These three placards all mean exactly the same thing:

I’m not a bit surprised for exactly the reason you gave. The thing is that they could be quite seriously ill by now, and all because they took no notice of a skull and crossbones danger sign that means toxic (or poisonous) in any language.

Thick sods probably thought the skull and cross bones meant the driver was a pirate

Or they probably relied on the fact that a lot of drivers don’t check their trailers and the BA would not expect any one inside a trailer load of toxic stuff, so not as thick as you think maybe.

I kicked four Iranians out of my trailer at Drongen services this week and in their haste to depart one of them had the decency to leave behind his wallet with £75 sterling in it.

spoilsport.
i had it many years ago, caught the sunday boat from poole about 7 of us all from nolans all going to cadiz with flat trailers on.
parked up in the dock in cherbourg (before all the fancy fences) and early hours monday we all left, stopped for coffee in the shell just north of nantes to find 3 blokes underneath the trailer
they were well ■■■■■■ off at being so far from the ferry
A gang of young Morocs broke into a Breda trailer in Tangiers docks. The driver informed the police who locked the trailer - for about ? 24 hrs ,maybe more. When they let them out they were almost dying of thirst. Thing was that rig was in the import park & was loaded for the gangs hometown near Rabat. The customs took a long while because of Ramadan.I was there & heard the poor s$ds banging on the side of the trailer but the cops wouldn’t open it up. V.hot.
I was bringing apples back from Holland and had the fridge set to +2, but I thought afterwards that what I should have done was to change the setpoint to -30 and gone back to bed for a couple of hours… not long enough to kill them, just enough to make their toes fall off
Had one get on the catwalk at Pidous transmark.
Didnt notice until i was near Vuerne 
I would just leave a copy of this paper in the trailer.
Few months back two Slovak drivers collected a trailer in Genova that had come unaccompanied from Tunis. They could hear some knocking when doing checks but could not see anything wrong so carried on. Following day, already in Slovenia, ‘trailer’ was responding to their knocking and even ‘talking’. So they rang police and a man was pulled out from coil well, after 2-3 days under load in summer temps he must have looked sorry.

Good job they did not call carabinieri, they’d been rotting in jail.
