The bloke that dropped that has already involuntarily removed his.

One of our subbies dropped this in the yard the other week and just [zb] off without telling anyone.0
11t of elecy parts on 10 pallets double stacked because he couldn’t be arsed opening the curtains any further, it wouldnt be so bad but he didnt have any other collections that day either!
Don’t blame him TBH. The rates subbies are getting are an insult.

Surely the forkie bears some of the responsibility?why? the driver tells flt driver where to put stuff
When?? because he couldn’t be arsed opening the curtains any further
I rarely do, some jobs I pick loaded trailers up, others the forkies know their job.
do you not think that if he turned up to pick the already badly loaded trailer up, he might of had the same issue in picking it up as what the person picking it up after he’d dropped it off would have?
One of our subbies dropped my loaded trailer with the pin about two feet off the ground on Friday. Had to take a run across the yard to get under it. Bam!

The current fine is £60 per trailer leg turn, and a new law out soon, £30 per each flash, when you forget to turn off the flashing beacons and orange lights.They can calculate how long you left the flasheys on by testing the filament in the bulb on their computer.
does that mean you believe the flashing light part then?
dude, i think he was joking

unless it’s obvious like when picking a full load, i’d say the vast majority of time the flt driver will say where / how do ya want it drive? if then it went down not quite where i wanted it or i changed my mind i don’t ever recall an issue of getting shifted to where i wanted it. and when i’ve been on the flt i’d always ask how they wanted it going on then ask if that’s alright fella? once on

That’s just trailer yard bs mate usually told by ex stobarts or ex army lads. It was even in a feature in Comercial Motor a few month ago about the 10 most used myths in transport that are bollox. Some trailer legs you can’t wind up fully because of the build up of grease and crap around them. I’ve never have VOSA wind up my trailer legs when I’ve been pulled over in the past,as long as you leave a good distance between road and legs you are fine.
that pic reminded of the driver/trainer at my last place, who collected a 26 tonne coil of steel and loaded it at the front of the well, and was rather surprised when he un coupled back in the yard and the trailer decided to sit on its nose

Another “WHOOOOOOOOOOOSH”!
He was clearly extracting the urine, surely the bit about the flashing lights gave that away!

Good effort Tobe! There’s one born every day, or in this case, two! 
Was he loaded with air freight?

The driver who dropped that probably wouldn’t be aware of it, although if he had dropped the trailer suspension it wouldnt have done that.
My guess is he dropped it and the rear air bags inflated just enough to reach the see-saw point.
