Would you leave..,,,

....,equipment like this on the side of a public highway over the weekend?

I’m sure the local kids have been pretending to drive a digger.

It’s in an out of the way place but on a dog walking route.

I’d say asking for vandalism.

Kit like that left everywhere and its insured so hey-ho. Cost of hauling it all to safe compounds wouldnt out way the cost of ones being stolen i doubt

 

[betweenthelines]

Only if you are prepared to carry the can should anyone get injured on it by it or falling off it. Is it lit up at night? Are there any warning signs? Is it barriered off?

 

[caveman]

I suppose that portaloo would come in handy.
Where is the location?

 

[Redlands Okie]

Sad state of affairs when someone is responsible for others stupidity. Yes I know its the way of the world now.

Usually all hired so they don't give a monkey's .

I would leave that there if I no longer wanted it and I expected it to be gone the next morning.

Seen such stuff left parked up in many streets in Europe. Once in Berlin there was a 3CX type parked up with a bunch of kids playing in the front bucket. They don't even fence them off, so random people can just walk through the working area.

Seem to have taken the buckets? & ther is no windows to smash. Here they would put the digger arm in the dumper to stop the dumper being stolen, tho digger is a bit small for that.
You can do what you like, but if someone want's it enough it'll be gone...

Can these be defeated or subverted in some way?

Apparently they are very difficult to find

 

[Lincs Lass]

All jewsons equipment has imobalieser keys and trackers,, saying that it's all jcb diggers so anybody who brave enough to lift one must be desperate, I wouldn't want one, only on hire

Haven’t looked lately but a few years back, a tracker jammer could be bought off eBay for bugger all.

Wouldn't sit on a digger for love nor money , mind nummingly boring.
