    That's that thing, they wouldn't!

    I don't know whether it's a case of "this is my lane, I'm not moving!" (Entitlement) or it's so far outside their driving experience they didn't know what to do?

    Hi,
    Guilty!

    Nearly got rammed off the road first time it happened to me.
    Kamikaze lead vehicle on a wide road made absolutely no sense to me - never seen a house being moved before.

    I presumed he was trying to kill me rather than warn me, till I saw it.

    Cheers

    Had a bloke drive around the pilot vehicle, and onto a 5 metre wide bridge that I was already on. The look on his face was priceless when he actually realised that the building I was carrying was 4.5 metres wide, and sitting on the bottom deck of the step deck meant that the front corner was right at his windshield height! I pulled up about 1/2 a metre before hitting him.
    I used to hate doing wide loads on the Bruce Highway between T'ville and Cairns!
