Today's comedy moment, as some of you know, apart from talking crap on the interweb my day job is scanning people in a 40ft trailer in a car park. This morning I came in to find a massive amount of what was obviously someone's rear window on the floor by the front of the trailer that wasn't there when I left.
So it looks like someone failed to see a 40ft, white painted trailer with reflective bits on it and reversed into it putting the corner straight through their hatchback. Oops

I sat in the queue to get into the local dump a while back and a lady drove out with her tailgate still up.

The height restriction barrier however was down……

You can guess the rest.

hehe

I used to drink in a pub opposite a free car park with a height barrier...During the summer it was only a matter time before a pissed off dad would be picking up the kids bikes off the road.

You'd be surprised how many times I've seen it happen.

The Tesco in Cleckheaton has a fairly well made height restriction. One of my most vivid memories as a kid was watching the fire brigade let their tyres down so they could un wedge themselves. There isnt a restriction on the other entrance to the carpark so they got in ok......

A good number of years ago, I was using my car (Honda CR-V MK1) to shift a really big table from my parents' house to my sister's. We were so so careful to make sure the table was far enough inside not to smack the tailgate when closed.

All good, jumped into the car, and reversed into a lamp post, rear light cluster destroyed and a fairly nasty dent or too paperbag

The schools have all now gone back. The standard of driving has fking plummeted to dire in just 48hrs. irked

ION. When I worked at a VAG garage, we used to have a lady driver (wife of a multi, multi millionaire) who used smash the N/S wing mirror off her Cayenne Turbo S at least 3 times a year. At £1500/2k a pop to fix, she preferred that hubby didn't know. I always called the office and asked to speak to the chauffeur to come and pick the car up.

One day, after a proper good thwack, I phoned the private office and asked to speak to Mr.B's chauffeur. This silly girl on the desk put me straight through to the Boss without thinking.

"Hi mate, it's ready to be picked-up. It'll cost £2500 this time because of the respray needed"

"Erm."

"No probs Keith, I'll bung it on the Credit Card as norm".

"Erm..Who is this?"

Rumbled.

He made her come down and pay for it in her own folding cash.

All this came back as I saw Keith just drop her and her mate down to the pub for dinner, driven in a diesel Disco.
