Contractor240's channel

Would like to know what hapened here. I'd also say that a couple of Scammell Contractors [40 tons unladen weight, 240+ GTW with 50 ton winches as standard] would soon have it sorted!!! The blue and white tractor would pull better if he'd straighten the steering!!

And your reason for overtaking the bus on the inside is?.....

It would be a lot easier to tow if he straightened the steering up!!

There's NO FAIL here despite the best attempts of the town planners, and considering that no one was helping him the driver did a bloody good job.

Definitely NOT British BUT it again goes to show ALWAYS check both ways before entering a junction!! Never assume that everyone will stop for a red light...

@bigwayneisgod Plus [there's more!] I have a good deal of respect for 7.7 ton drivers and I'm often jealous of the fact that they can get places where I struggle with a bigger motor!

I was in Leeds one day talking to a lass with a 7.5 and she told me how many drops she had [+ collections] and ...

From the way it was moving at first, if the front [steered] axle had been in a straight line with the rears, that would have probably got itself out. As the steering was on lock it was trying to bury itself in the side of the ruts!

@rumble291 Yes, I do drive and have done so since 1969. I have a CLEAN car, bike and truck licence...... The Audi's at least three feet away from the car he's passing who, all credit to him, wasn't hogging the centre line like so many morons do which renders passing impossible.........

Once a car has been 'wet' as in under water in the sea, it is a write off. ALL the electrics need replacing [remember salt...] plus the interior plus the engine if it was running when it got stuck and wet.....

The clunk clank noise is from the second loco the one with the 2-10-0 wheel arrangement and there's clearly a centre journal missing, the noise is when the con rod changes direction, it hits the front of where the bush should be, then drop, hits the back and rises , sad really, it'll have done un...

What sort of effin muppet applies power to the road wheels when people are either in front or behind said vehicle? Should have your licence taken off you.

If using a winch USE THE WINCH DO NOT DRIVE AS WELL. Wanna snap a cable?

WTF????..........

Not trying to teach you to suck eggs or owt but, you'll find it easier to 'crack' the wheelnuts loose if you pull the wheel brace bar up rather than push it down!!!

This is because pushing down you can only use up to your bodyweight, pulling up [with a straightish back obviously!] means that you ...

Just watched short drive with the camera inside [mirror's in the way] and love the concept but especially the transmission/suspension noises!!!! Excellent

There is actually a minimum height which should be adhered to when working or hanging something over a public right of way and I'd say that this scaffolding is way too low.....

And here's my twopennorth!!; On a bike, it is recommended that when stopping, select first as you stop then keep the FOOT on the brake. [If all behind is safe and you may be a few seconds waiting slip it into neutral] Keep foot on brake. Why? If someone rams you whilst you hold the handbrake [F...

Here, hang about, brake fail? You shouldn't have to use the brakes in downhill off roading....... Engage 1st gear and feet on the floor-remember?

What the chuff was the motorcyclist looking at??? Good job they didn't roll under though!!!

Yes, I cringed too when the white shirted guy gave the go ahead to the machine operator WITHOUT checking his oppo was clear. But why, as the neck had been removed, wasn't the machine just driven straight up on the deck [with the trailer lined up with the road] thereby negating the need to skid s...

Speed does not kill. Inappropriate speed and carelessness they are what kill..

Is it me? I didn't see any drop kicks, lots of throws but no kicks....

Hah, that was great!!! If only real life driving could be done like that!!!

Very cute but it strains the joints and muscles on young puppies and it's recommended that you wait until they are at least 6 months old before doing stairs or climbing work.

We drive off road 4x4's and we always ensure that number plates & lights are clean when we go back on road and we don't get pulled so stop whinging
