If theres no weight limit or theres a road closure like there is constantly how do u expect your food toget on table. Next time u complain ask yourself what things do u have in home without it being on a lorry at some stage of the process and be grateful that a driver maybe had a 15 hour day and still doing the job in the 1st place

I think it’s the fact the hedge growing into the carriageway is the problem tbh if it was cut back the land rover without a displaying number plate on the trailer I might add might not of been hugging the white line. Vehicles of this size need to access small roads constantly as long as there’s no restriction on that road size/weight the size of the vehicle is irrelevant. I’ve driven artics down roads like these regularly.

Lecker !

the garbage truck weighs 36t, how do you think the pavement would be bursting in a trim

@@sgtrollo2267 I won't want to put 36t on 6 wheeler,that looks to be 24-26t,I had an old boss try to put 50t on my 8 wheeler to take 1 mile between sites-did not go well.

@@sgtrollo2267 Tante @Preston hat NICHT gedacht .....

@@stum8374 since you focused on this, I'll rephrase it "the garbage truck weighs 26t, how do you think the pavement would be bursting in a trim"

@@sgtrollo2267 26ton , if fully loaded

Mine too. Ive just changed mine as it didnt record when it needed to. Expensive junk

Not without pinching and potentially blowing the tyre, not to mention the truck's rear steer would've swung the bin lifts into the land rover, doing far more damage than what was already done to that trailer (which i should add had no lights or number plate)

@@Waste1YT The driver could see that there was a small gap way ahead and could have easily curved it before meeting the Land Rover, saving a lot of bother and having enough space to get past, also believe me those tyres are tough going up a curb that size won't do anything these lorry's hit, scrape, clip curbs every day fully loaded and empty and it does nothing, your profile contains a waste lorry so I'd assume you should have already knew this. You could risk a blow out on sharp damaged curbs but this curb as evident in the video is not that. It's basically just a lack of forward planning and consideration taken by the driver.

@@interestedErvini That’s just not the case though is it? It’s incredibly unlikely that the truck driver seen the Land Rover when he would’ve been able to pull in anywhere to let it past (which he’s not obliged to do btw, they Highway Code states people are to give way to large vehicles, such as this) as by the looks of it he was stopped to empty the bin of the house on the right hand side of the video. We should also take into account it’s actually in contravention for the Highway Code for vehicles to mount the kerb and while this may not be enforced heavily by the police, chances are the driver will be pulled in by his gaffer for mounting it. The truck driver literally cannot win, if he goes up on the kerb he gets pulled in, if not some yob with an illegal trailer that’s clearly too wide for both the car and road blocks his way entirely. There is literally nothing else he can do but creep forward and hope for the best

@@Waste1YT You think he'd get pulled in for mounting a curb? Far far from it he's driving a bin lorry the company's don't give a damn. However companies do give a damn if the driver hits something, be that an old illegal trailer or something similar it's much more likely that will cause damage. This would bring a bigger issue as the company has to potentially repair damage on their lorry, plus deal with an unhappy local when the driver could have easily avoided it. Looking at the video even if he was stopped at the house he saw the land rover stop further on as the driver saw he couldn't get past nor get out the way. In that case if the smaller vehicle cannot give way the bigger one must work around to get through. In the seconds leading up to it reaching the land rover it was enough time and space for it to curb it and get past no bother but instead the driver decided to push on. Again as I said no consideration for the future.

You pratt.

The hgv driver should have stopped BEFORE the incident but the trailer should have been tight on the hedge about 8" but it might have been the drivers first time with trailer on,the hgv was probable empting his bin and the landi should have watched the road for large vehicles etc.

indeed or mounted the footpath

@Don't Shoot Sure thing officer,but in the real world you got to do what you got to do. Hopefully he had his wiper blades in good working order,that's an offense too...pfff 🙄

the garbage truck weighs 36t, how do you think the pavement would be bursting in a trim? if you see trailer have space there but sorry to say that but lorry driver is a moran ...

This happened to me last week in my little Audi, although I wasn't towing a trailer. I was so frightened I had a rectal prolapse and splattered shit everywhere. The inside of my car smells diabolical now.

I agree 👍

Not only the reg plate but the Landrover brake lights are on but not on the trailer...

Good point. Good enough to negate an insurance claim.
