Apparently it’s now no longer good enough being “gassed” whilst driving in Europe… I find it totally unbelievable that one of our esteemed trade associations have seen fit to issue an official warning about “High Speed Truck Raiding” in Germany
This is where, obviously, criminal gangs use Opel Omegas to drive so close behind a moving truck that 2 of the gang are able to:
Climb out of the sunroof and down the bonnet
Open the trailer rear doors
Extract high value consumer items, including TVs and Plasma Screen TVs
Pass them back via the second “perp” into the open sunroof of the car and away
You have been warned folks…
PS - this is absolutely unconnected with any dodgy E/Bloc or other drivers pilfering his load then coming up with an excuse which doesn’t involve his tacho showing any forced stops en route
Can some one post where this has happened as
sorry , I have not heard about any problems over
here, and belive me it would be in the local
rag DIE Bild or on the television,
I’ve seen bad driving over here, but nothing like that. Sounds more like something from a film. More likely an excuse made up by someone who was pilfering their own load. Next thing you hear they’ll be quoting the same trick with coaches full of immigrants being loaded onto your trailer on the autobahn…
