Having just left the yard in work about half a mile later a car which turned out to be stolen jumps a red light and also on the wrong side of the road while the driver is looking left to se if anything is coming he floors the accelerator but fails to spot the 44foot long wagon that is right in front of him and ploughed into it.
He drove off ,wont have got far the car was totalled, a few people did stop to help and thanks to them.
but i really hope the two idiots in the stolen car are hurt i am a bit sore and was shaken up.
I was amazed at how little damage was done to my truck though only a few scratches on the wheel he hit on the cab axles.
it goes to show sometimes all the best planning and caution ( i was doing less than 15 mph and did see him coming but i was already into the junction) you can still be a victim of an idiot who is determined.

Give it a month and you will no doubt be hearing from their (state paid for) solicitor who will nail your arse to the wall for the distress & injury you caused the two car thieves
