Comedy Evri Driving...

The fun starts at 3:30.
The rocks are there to stop people driving over the water main, but they've clearly failed. Anyone know if Severn Trent will charge me to fix the cover which has been smashed up?
The car is a complete nail of a thing. The drivers front wing is stoved in and there's not a straight panel on it. Toying with reporting to Evri but I don't wish the old fella to lose his job.

Maybe I'm the only one - but I feel for the driver. Needs to be something at eye level instead of a barely visible rock since also watching the road to pull out. Obviously you yourself know it's there.The fun starts at 3:30.

Especially the guy in the Skoda attempting to reverse back on to the main road with traffic passing.The fun starts at 3:30.

Poor guy, you can see the dismay kick in as he realises what's happened. Lucky he didn't break the sump though.

I feel for him too. However, it's not just one barely visible rock, it's 3 arrange in a pyramis shape and at least 2.5' off the ground!Somehow laughing at what looks to be someone of at least late middle age, with a limp, getting into a pickle like that while having to shlep parcels for a bit of money in the pocket doesn't seem quite right to me.
The sort of mistake that really can happen to any of us. Even if you think it can't.

Looks like a pensioner (or someone close to that age) supplementing his income with parcel deliveries (for which he is being paid the absolute minimum per drop).
His car didn't look too bad either until he connected with that rock.
As for the missaced number plate - that deserves a mention in that other thread. tsk!

Yep completely agree.The sort of mistake that really can happen to any of us. Even if you think it can't.
The skoda driver reversing into oncoming traffic and not offering to help an old man .... well words fail me. Well they don't but I'd get banned. Who wouldn't help an old man like that out (aside form the Skoda driver)?

I did offer through the window, as it happens and he said he would sort it out himself. I drove in, sorted my kids out (post school run) and then went immediately back out to move the rock. As you can see in the video
Fair enough, in which case I apologise. I hadn't assumed you were the Skoda driver.Gassing Station | General Gassing | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
