Love the way the report says “A lorry shed its load”
The bloody loads still on it ! Just the Tractor’s not attached !

(Bloody Journalists !)

I think its marvellous what Police can do with their hats these days.

Might be mechanical failure of the fifth wheel jaws but possibly more likely that the driver over-ran the pin when coupling up. At least nobody was hurt.

jeez not been a good couple of weeks for the container men

Heads = Coupled up incorrectly.

Tails = Pin snapped / Fifth Wheel malfunction.

Depends what end.

Hope it’s not full of China’.

I wonder how much further it would have gone if the legs hadn’t collapsed when they hit the curbing?

Ah well at least it’s easy to change the rear tyre :smiley:
