    Fair play putting your life at risk. The sooner they reinstate the hard shoulder the better. If those idiots in charge spent the money they are taking off motorists on improving the road network every bodies lives would be safer and more stress free.
    I know I’m stating the obvious.

      It's no different to A1, A14 or A50. They never had hard shoulders

    I've had two garages do this to me - luckily I caught it both time by checking the nuts when I got home. The first one left all five bolts finger tight, the other time they over tightened the nuts so much that the hub studs sheared off. Luckily I noticed this when I had two out of five remaining... had to replace the whole hub.

    In fairness to him, the tyre, and wheel, were flat....
    ... on the ground.

      The tire and wheel were fine, the problem was that the wheel nuts were 2 miles back, up the road. someone forgot the tighten the nuts properly. You would have thought that the driver would have felt the vibration on the steering.

    Thanks Greg. Great to see Highways onto it covering your back on the M6 'live lane flat tire job'. In my youth I had a very similar 'loose/lost wheel' incident on a gravel road and had to pinch a few wheel nuts to get going again. Blame the mechanic who was DIY me 😞Thanks for the content, its all very much appreciated.

    The garage that worked on the car will not accept any responsibility for the wheel Loss, 💯 on the paperwork if will say wheel nuts need checking after 50miles

    Good evening pal, just thought I’d let you know I think your CZcams channel is brilliant. I’ve subscribed and I’m keen to learn more. I’m wondering if I could pay you for a 5/10 minute chat over the phone sometime. I’m hoping to start my own transport company in the Manchester area and would love a few pointers if you have the time. I’m going to have think about who I know that would be suitable for your camera work. Have you found someone yet? I’ve messaged you on Instagram👍🏻
