Artic runs over buried bell

This was an odd job. You couldn't see the artic parked in the industrial estate from the main road, but you could see where it had been! The entrance is particularly tight and for some strange reason someone decided to make it even worse for large vehicles by burying a "bell" style bollard in the ground. It went beneath the axles and was dragged into the industrial estate before damage to the brakes stopped the truck from progressing. The 1075 was very good for this job as it was able to lift the empty trailer on the underlift and still leave the crane free to pull the bell out and place it on the verge.
