What the actual fuck. Was he high? Getting a gobby? Watching the Lion King on the Sat Nav screen? Giving a gobby?!?!

A trailer missing a wheel was towed for several kilometres by a driver who was "blissfully unaware" anything was wrong, police say.

They would not face charges, Stewart said.

I'd rather be buzzed by some dude at 200+ that's paying attention to what he's doing than be anywhere near this dip shit, but apparently it's not even worthy of some defensive driving lessons.

Just outside of Rangiora , that's the new Ashley river bridge he goes across, the trailer tows quite straight with only one wheel

:Police:...careless use of a motor vehicle, dangerous load, damage to public property, endangering other road users and being so fucking inattentive to driving that you don't even notice a trailer tearing up the road!


:p...oh sorry officer....I was 'BLISSFULLY UNAWARE!" :D




....thats soooOOO MY NEW LINE NOW!:yes: :D :laugh:


its fucking mental tho aye

[Banditbandit]

Yeah .. and "Sorry Officer, I was blissfully unaware of the motorcyclist coming the other way ..." could well be his excuse in the future !!!!

These dicks should not be allowed on our roads !!!!

[jasonu]

No charges laid??? Anyone thick enough to do that shouldn't be allowed to drive at all.

and if he had collected an on coming motorcyclist the headline would have been
'Motorcyclist crashes into trailer'.....

[willytheekid]

'Motorcyclist crashes into trailer'.....

Yeah that'll learn him...

[Erelyes]

No charges laid, huh.

Guess the 5-0 only care about speed these days, not about safety.

...the next ones say "slower communities together"

--some communities have a head start on the retardation.

He will have passed the attitude test, no priors and the cop prob wanted to get home and watch the rugby instead of doing the paperwork. But this is the way our legal system works, do something really dumb and hurt no one, just get warning. Do same thing and hurt someone and your buggered...
This sort of shit bothers me as if you cant notice something dragging and scraping like that your not paying attention at all. I don't normally travel in holiday traffic but the last three consecutive times there has always been a caravan or boat trailer beached somewhere with missing wheel...

Oh and just to indemnify my hypocracy I nearly lost a trailer wheel off b-train once as mechanic had changed tyre and not told my swap partner. Murphys law my torch was flat that night so did half arse check of unit, got to Auckland with a very wrecked hub and a twelve stud wheel held on by seven washer thickness (filed away by wheel movement) nuts. I felt physically sick when I saw it as I immediately recognized the potential for disaster... Some serious shit came down for several of us in the firing line for that one... But a bloddy car trailer dragging on the ground only 2 metres behind you, should be noticeable...

One of our clients lost a complete hub with dual wheels attached from their B Train, it wasn't until they parked up for the night and walked past the unit they saw it was missing

By some fluke they managed to find it at Orari so they had driven 130 odd km with it missing
