The press at it again…
Sorry but I don’t see what’s wrong with the article
A lorry driver whose trailer blew over on the Forth Road Bridge
has been severely criticised for ignoring high-wind restrictions.The bridge’s operators said it was lucky no-one was killed in the incident
two weeks ago.Footage of the German lorry driver’s escape was captured in a video
posted on the internet and by CCTV.The large trailer is swept into the air by the gusting wind and left teetering
on its side blocking the carriageway.The lorry driver carried on for a short distance after the trailer was blown over.
For a whole minute in the video the trailer looks like it has come to a rest.
Then, surprisingly, it rights itself back on to the road.
The driver continued on his way north to Fife but he was soon stopped by
police.He was given a warning but will not face charges.
The Forth Estuary Transport Authority, which operates the bridge, said
the high-wind restrictions were clearly signposted at the time of the
incident on 28 December.It said it was releasing the CCTV footage to warn drivers of the dangers
of ignoring restrictions.A spokesman for Feta said the lorry driver was lucky that nobody was
killed or injured.
would the irony be the car driver videoing the incident on his mobile phone whilst driving?
obviously, not a so called professional driver and definitely not thinking of the children

Me neither to be honest. Looks like a fairly accurate reporting of the situation shown in the video.
Dunno how the bridge operator can blame the drive, surely they have given him permission to cross whilst it was unsafe!!!
By accepting the toll off him.
What toll?

I think the Forth Road Bridge toll was scrapped in 2008

for all of you who never got it. im not getting at them about the truck being in the wrong but more the fact that they find cheap ways to have a dig at us…while car drivers are clearly filming whilst driving and oh no…cant have a go at the car driver filming whislst driving.

Yeah nut, but not that far up for a couple of years.

To be fare the bloke filming never blew over because he’d ignored the restriction signs.
I’m as much against the press taking shots at LGV drivers as anyone but I’d hardly call this a “cheap way to have a dig at us”, the incident could easily have resulted in a serious accident.
I personally wouldn’t knock the driver too much but it has to be said that on this occasion he made a serious error of judgement and unfortunately for him there was at-least two cameras filming it.
