M1 MAYHEM

The Southbound traffic was slow moving in the morning and the reason became clear when I reached this scene.

M1 Northbound near Watford gap services Thursday 15/05/08

This truck was at the side of the road with the side of the trailer ripped out.

The reason became clear a bit further on

Before anybody comments about taking pictures while driving, the traffic my side was moving at a walking pace at the time ;)

RAC Tossers

This was in the lorry park of Trowell services today while on my 45 minute break

The van on the right was loading a BMW (Tee-Hee) and the other two were parked or should I say abandoned on the left. Bearing in mind this was at the exit of the parking area so it was a real pain in the bum for anyone getting out, it didn't really matter to me as I had plenty of time.

They were very professional though because after loading the car they left his wipers on so that the screen wouldn't get dirty (this means the ignition was on too). After setting off I passed them several miles down the road and the wipers were still sweeping the screen, new Wiper Blades, possible scratched screen (because it was dry) and eventually a flat Battery..........
