Can anyone guess who fitted them to the roof of my van?

Actually it was not very funny.

I did, with the help of a bloke in a pickup with orange flashing
lights on the roof that stopped to help manage to get them off the
motorway (they were blocking lanes 2 and 3) throw them down the
banking of the hard shoulder, get the motorway running again and ****
off before the police arrived.

Oops.


I don't think that I will be showing the dashcam of that one. You
obviously cannot see the ladders but it does show how quickly the
motorway came to a stop.

You know when you are driving along a motorway and all of a sudden it
comes to a standstill for a few minutes and then you are moving again
and you are thinking "Why did we stop?"

Well today it was because of me.


BTDTGTTS.

In our case we laid a caravan on its side across two lanes of the
M6. Didn't half stop the traffic quickly.



Bet you didn't throw it down the banking next to the hard shoulder and
**** off.
