Close to meeting the big man in the sky....

You didn't look best pleased there Mr Johnson, I don't blame you mind.

 

I'm with Matty, young lads driving tractors and trailers on the road is a recipe for disaster.

 

I don't care about 'I've been driving tractors about the farm since I was knee high to a grasshopper'......

And you backed up for that idiot I would of sat it out till he got his boss to turned up,    

I was on my way for a fry-up! Didn’t want to delay and was seriously in danger of losing my temper.

Very nearly lost it Mr E!

[Marula]

Bloody hell! That could have been very nasty, he's lucky he only left with an ear full.

[Mark Bolam]

Close one Kev.
Glad you were on the ball mate.

I don't think weight was much of an excuse there,it's not that big. Just speed and possibly no trailer brakes from the way he was pushed round.
 
Just for the record if you do get a tractor licence at 16 there's limits to what you can drive.

Speed, downhill momentum, a slippery road surface and a blind bend....

It was bloody close!

I’m seriously wondering if I should just send it to his boss or wether I should send it to HSE.

If it had been a dotty old maid or a school-run-mum I think it could have been a fatal.

What if the yoof doesn’t learn from a life experience and keeps going like a maniac?

I’ll speak to the boss again tomorrow and show him the vid.

What would the AT massive do? I’m struggling with this one.

Agreed. 30 odd ton of metal, travelling at 50 kmph with a set of pallet forks up front.

 

Where were the pallet forks? 

[Chrissy]

Brilliant!  So wish there was sound!

I still find it quite amazing that kids can drive huge powerful tractors with stupid loads on before they can drive a car.

I cannot understand that either, its mad
