Easter idiots

[ballibeg]

A holiday maker took his disco 4 up into the woods and got stuck in a ditch. Local agent for aa etc asked me to pop up in tractor with him and pull him out.

 

We arrived with chain, strops and shackles. Got non stop threats of suing us if I put a scratch on the motor or damaged it pulling it out. Now considering he's wedged it against a couple of trees and a boulder we packed up the gear and left him still shouting abuse.

 

Gather it was there for another 24 hours until it was dragged out rather unceremoniously by another outfit. Saw it on the back of the truck not straight on any direction.

 

He was trespassing, stuffed his motor into ditch at speed but then its someone else's fault if any damage occurs removing it?!

 

These folk live amongst us!

Town'ser no doubt,best left where it was.

I bet leaving him where he was stuck gave you great pleasure. I hope being stuck there for 24 hours gave him time to reflect on his manners and how he speaks to people, but probably not. He will still be an arse

Complete knob jocky . You handeled it just right . In a way its a shame the other lot were willing to risk it !

Land owner shoul sue HIM for tresspass and damage to the rock and the tree

Yep! There are some people who inhabit their own cracked world. It's a pity theirs knocks into the real world all too often. As said, there's this unfathomable culture of, 'It's someone else's purse that'll pay for it. Even if I screwed-up'.

We often have people get stuck up the lane near me. I've now started being very careful who I'll pull out because of the claim culture, it's madness imo for people to claim damages after trashing their own vehicle

People get stuck in the woods by me all the time as their sat nabs take them through there! I've pulled a few out, but never come across anything like that, even when I'm charging them. Shocking, I bet it was great just packing up and going home

This one thought he'd just go for a play. In one gap, driving all over the place, and was caught by the ditch coming out. Cost £25 for a tractor pull out as he had no phone signal so no mates to call to help.

He wasn't rude just grateful.

You were quite right to walk away from an abusive driver.

Lucky anyone found him with that cammo paint job

Hi

 

What a complete tosser, got everything he deserved & hope who ever pulled him out eventually charged accordingly.

 

You definitely did the right thing leaving him to stew, did you note the plate just in case they return?
