wozza Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 i used to live 5 minutes form there. In manchester those things are cool to mess with when your drunk as if you get a couple people on them at once they bob up and down. Yes we were very drunk and found it entertaining. Quote
Rich_Eason Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 Gees The last two the 4x4 airbag went off and the bloke in the van smashed the windscreen! :rolleyes: Pretty obvious however the outcome so no point in trying... Quote
Ciaran2903 Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 Why do sooooo many people do that!!!!!! :rolleyes: Looks like there was a kid in the back of the 4x4, thats really sad! Quote
Rich_Eason Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 I cant believe that they think the people who design these traffic systems, dont think that someone might try and sneak by.... complete numpties Quote
C4VTS Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 To think that those people actually have driving licences :rolleyes: Quote

lee_marshuk Posted November 22, 2006 Author Posted November 22, 2006 yeah I know, the 4 x 4 was a hell of a smack!!! Quote
Rich_Eason Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 Sorry to pull up an old post... However it appears that the people in the video "had no idea they were not allowed to follow bus drivers through the bollards" Link Cue the excuses.... Quote
Safety Engineer Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 Theres been quit a lot of talk about these in the motoring press. When they first went in there where no signs indicating the barriers or change of road use (some of these were roads that cars could use). All in all a balls up, they local authority are under scrutiny for H&S offences, bearing in mind that these devices are supposed to 'fail to safe' and some bits have been left out on cost grounds !!

moggy Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 those are some typicaly OTT reports, making it sound like the bollards smash thru into the passenger cabin. its clear to see they stop when theres a car on top. bunch of freakin eejits <_< :angry: :lol: Quote
Rich_Eason Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 Yes the newspaper report has been "spun" just a tad! <_< Quote
