Leeds bridge demolition failure

[8ob]

i cant believe how low these modern low loaders are

Only takes an air bag to pop and it’s game over, I don’t know how many load levellers there are on those trailers but if there were only two and the engine was switched off it would cause a problem like that.

Seriously, who writes, and edits, that tripe???

“It is believed workmen tried to move the section of the bridge from a crane.

But the "120-tonne" debris fell and landing on a truck.”

Possibly someone fresh out of uni. with a degree in journalism, bright eyes and a bushy tail.

If their grasp of journalism and English is that good and they got a degree in journalism it would go a long way to explain why modern journalism is so rubbish

What is worse is that a vast % of the population either don't notice or don't care and so the scribblers can get away with it.

I always ask what are the only 2 things you can believe in a newspaper? Most people don't get it right . The price and the date. From then on in it's mostly from the fiction shelf.
