I think this driver needs some physics lessons. All 4 wheels strapped the same. J9 of M1 and it’s a Birmingham firm. I wonder if it’ll get there?
Wonder what the brake pipes are like? 
I wouldn’t be happy about the lack of protection between the metal buckles and my alloys either.
I used to do recovery, and we had padding there to protect wheels.
Assuming there wasn’t also straps anchoring it underneath which seems unlikely, that’s pretty bad strapping

forget the wheels Wayne, maybe learning to strap above the centre line would be a start.
Tachograph, no other restraints on it.
I would be more concerned about somebody taking photos while there driving

I wouldn’t.
Unless they’re stationary in accident traffic with the engine off.

I am aware of that m1cks, I was just saying about the scratches to the alloys too - obviously a bit of a cowboy
At least all 4 wheels were strapped, 1 went past me on the M54 1 day with only 1 wheel strapped
He’s kept the buckles low deliberately to avoid scratching the alloys, but as anybody whose used these straps before knows there is a “loop” that goes behind the casualty wheel, so imo nothing to see here, move along.

Yes mate, but the loop being blow the horizontal centre of the wheel means a good bump can put the vehicle out of the straps.
It would have to be 1 hell of a bump mind - but always think worst case
A forward or rear jolt could also pop them out the strap and if the parking brake isn’t very good then someone’s not getting their freelander back.

But your not !!

Bar,t rate
I agree totally with the above two posts, but tbh I’ve done the same when confronted with expensive wheels and no protection. As you’ll both know the loop will be over the stop of the wheel on the inside so isn’t as bad as first appears. Agreed it’s not best practice, but needs must etc.
In good ole days of piggy backing used rope never moved.

When I was doing motorway recovery, If it was busy, all I would strap was the FNS and then disappear. Next available safe location,then the rest got put on. And I would NEVER strap if I had to go to Live side
Having carried a few Ferraris, Maserati, Aston Martins and MCClaren F1, I would probably have strapped those a little better
