the woman in the renault was too busy doing her make up to notice she reached her destination before she put it in gear ;D ;D ;D

Jesus! I'm staying in for the rest of my life. ;D ;D ;D

I can just see Rowan Atkinson in the driver's seat, trying to cut out a clit-shaped sticker to go on the side of the door with his hedgehogs. ;D

That makes me laugh! ;D as a trucker myself, so many times i've thought about doing that when someone wants to tussle with me, but the professional in me(not Bodie or Doyle)just won't allow it. Personally I think this was deliberate,you would see it and definately feel it in front of you. :o
-
if you look closely this truck isn't fitted with the front blind spot mirror so he won't see the car he would need to stand up and look over the steering wheel or is it road rage.
well i supose if you agrue with a truck your onto a looser.
O and new Y fronts needed lol
-
There's no way he would'nt know. Truck cabs really bounce about, pull away too quickly or fly over a level crossing etc. & the cab jumps a foot upwards & everything inside goes all over....unless he just does'nt like Renaults...who does? ::)
-
Evening news has stated that the police are now going to re-investigate this case! ::) ::)
Wonder why?? ::) ::) :D :D ;)
-
I dont see how that can possibly be real. The tyres on the car would disintegrate and there would be black smoke everywhere. The truck driver would definately be aware of the car even if he couldn't see it. Even if the tyres had completely gone there would be sparks and I think the car would flip.
Definately dodgy.
-
My thoughts...
That car would be breaking up all over the place, starting with the tyres/wheels.
It just seems to be gliding along too smoothly. ::)

I've been dreading the day i agree with you Steve but you're right. Even on a wet road the car would'nt stay planted. No sign of any damage either...there would've been some.

Not wishing to appear geeky, but the lift axle on the tractor unit is up so he is running empty. The trailer is mostly aluminium body and steel chassis so very light. The massive torque that these trucks produce at low RPM are quite entertaining in the wet. If that car is really under the front of that truck the drive axle would be spinning like mad trying to gain traction and ultimately come to a complete standstill. To do that speed in the wet with a car under the bumper is total tosh. Had us all going though, nice one :y

'Twas on the news tonight .. apparently the police are "re-opening their enquiries" and the haulage company admit to "an incident" so there is something odd ... :(
Having watched it a couple of times after the above comments ... I make these observations ..
The clit is not sitting totally "flat" on the truck .. the wheels "on " the truck appear to be off the ground
The nearside wheels are certainly on the ground, and at the very end of the clip sparks can be seen, just, from that region
My initial reaction was "fake" .. but why would someone fake the heads inside the car ??
I just don't know now ... :(
-
well i reckon hes a pillock , who in the right mind tests their side impact bars an side impact air bags at 60 mph on a motorway in front of a truck ...someone could have got hurt , silly boy !! :D :y ( ps for all the dopes out there...im extrcting the urine :y)

Yes, I've just watched it again and I must say, despite my earlier misgivings, it COULD be real. :-/ :-/

easy tiger...theyl have you believing in father christmas an the tooth fairy next,,,its a slippery slope once you go down that road ... believe me , i drive the bus !!!

Let's suppose for a moment the truck is doing 56mph empty and in the wet, where on earth did he "pick up" the car?Granted the car is facing the right way for an entry slip collision.But the speeds and positions of both vehicles would have to be so precise for the truck not to be affected in some way,either through loss of speed,noise,bouncing around or wheel spin. I have driven the tallest of trucks and I cannot believe the driver didn't know there was a car there. The footage is real enough but deliberate I think :-/

Now that I could agree with ... actual footage of a staged incident ... ... a set up ... now .. were the telephone filmers in on the act ??
