    Right on the money. If dragging didn’t work then lifting could be worth a go.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Leave digger where it is. It's to small to be of help. Usually when trying to get off on those angles with a drop off digger ends up down the bank upside down with a hurt operator of stuck half way off so making a simple recovery complicated. Get a wheeled crane in and lift lowbed back on the road. No damage or cock ups necessary. Why look for one.
    Ridicule for truck driver and as said beersies goes without saying

    A crane stuck in a ditch at lower hutt this morning caused traffic mayhem all the way to Porirua. Must be something in the air today

    Leave the digger on the deck, maybe another couple of chains to tie it down, get an operator with balls to swing digger out and assist tractor unit...piece-of-piss, be outa there in no time.

    Doesn't look like you could get a towey past to pull it out frontwards either. Jack up the back and try to back up maybe. It's a long way off the road, driver must have just kept looking forward and praying

    That road and Paekakariki Hill Rd both have LOTS of signage saying "NO TRUCKS" "DON'T FOLLOW GPS" etc.

    Happens every couple of years....
