[QUOTE="Shovelhands, post: 4409448, member: 37424"] You see it all the time, it is incredible. To be honest I’ve got far less compassion for idiots that are old enough to know better. Youngsters don’t know any better, but hopefully will learn, but sadly some of them will end up as old idiots that have not learnt from their mistakes! Witnessed a lad this year, who drove into a field I was in, he was a bit lost, but thought he needed to get past me, I was parked in the track being loaded. Rather than getting out and asking me to move, at which point I’d have told him he was in the wrong place, he reversed painfully back and tried to get round me another way, he came to a fairly abrupt halt once he’d hit a tree and bent pretty much everything on the o/s of the cab on the near new JD he was piloting....... When I went to see if he was ok, I just couldn’t help feeling sorry for him, I helped him out of his muddle the best I could and that was that. Just hope he learns?.... But when you have to tow out an 8 wheeler, piloted by a guy in his fifties, who has taken a wrong turn, along a track that’s virtually un-passable, where other trucks are ‘supposed’ to have gone before him, but clearly hadn’t, then driven that truck until he was completely bogged and slipping in a huge dyke......you do have to wonder if there’s any hope for him, and how he’s made it this far without gaining brains..............:banghead: [/QUOTE]
