How the f...

[jim.cox]

This fine example of kiwi driving skills was doing the rounds at work - thought I should share...

WOW!!!! That's quite a gifted effort...Any details as to how much were his alcohol's blood levels, if any?

Sorry, I dont have any details

The signwriting on the door suggests a Foresty company, so maybe something other than Alcohol was a factor ?

:eek:

That's a bloody good effort... fixed the last picture. ;)

Or specifically something other than ethanol - methanol will make you go blind.

So it was Methanol me mum was warning me about affecting my eyesight?

I knew it started with M

I'm a bit deaf you know!

[007XX]

I was told doing too much of this :tugger:, could make you blind...:lol:

[fireball]

damn that double vision eh?

he is so fired!:yes:

[ninjac]

Fell asleep at the wheel would be my guess.
Thank god he/she didn't take-out anyone else.

[klingon]

OMG - how did they get into that position, and how did they get out of the cab?!

If they fell asleep at the wheel surely they would have woken up before they got that far behind the barrier... and how did they get over that culvert?!

I am thoroughly intrigued. If anyone knows the answer, please share!

[Krusti]

That's the side of the road they drive on down Gissy way....:msn-wink:

If the ute was traveling at or near 100kph and they fell asleep. That distance would be very easy to cover. You have to factor in the reactions of the driver.Because they were asleep they wouldn't know what/where/how for seconds after the initial bump.
Its a 4x4 and at speed that culvert was just a pothole.

[Mikkel]

You'd still have to swerve right all the way across both lanes, over the shoulder, partly into the dish - THEN do a sharp correction to the left, miss the pylon cable, jump the culvert and then jam the bloody thing in between the power pole and the barrier.
And notice that none of the vineyard poles have been touched... That's precise driving if i ever saw it.

I'm impressed!

I like the way the rear of the deck/tray is sitting on top of the post for the armco, any chance it was dropped it this position ?

[darkwolf]

Now the important question does the hilux still drive? :)

More than likely...

not from the looks of the wheel UNDER the armco in the 3rd picture

[Qkchk]

Well you know that timber isnt the only thing they harvest in the forestry....

[Mom]

Look at the pics again, and reconsider that question..........glad I never met Mr "better reaaaaaallllly conseeeennnnnnnnnnntrrrrrrate on mu, mu. muuuuuuu drivvvvvvvvving "hick" . Well done that lamp post for stopping him really. Would have been a bit of speed involved to wedge yourelf so neatly against the pole..........if it were the Olymics and I was judging the ability to drive home...-2/10 for wedgies, but if I was judging parking..........10/10!!! for best place to park.....Gold medal effort!!!!!!!!

More than likely...

Kiwi version of top gear thrashing the hilux? What other type of abuse can we conjure up for the thing? I'm sure a bunch of bikers can think up some good ideas that would put the poms to shame... :devil2:

[hospitalfood]

Im guessing he was driving the barrier, last time I drove a barrier I hit 2 cars, a cyclist and a nun. your average barrier has crap steering.

Who needs a warranty as stated below...

[skidMark]

[Conquiztador]

Now would it not have been better if there had been a Cheese Cutter??

She'll be right mate! ;)

Nah, if you wanna test a Hilux take it up and over Gertrude Saddle - if it still drives then it's a miracle!
