Just saw a guy towing a 10 tonner with a tow bar, thats ok but whats not ok is that the 10 tonner was running and some guy was driving it!

Tip if ya wanna live to see tomorrow NEVER drive a vehicle thats on tow, steer it, use the brake a bit but don't drive it, not to mention you do all kinds a dammage to both cars!

Couldn't believe it even though I saw it with my own eyes

This may sound cold, but anyone dumb enough to do that, deserves whatever happens to them. As long as no one else gets hurt.

It might have been using air brakes, in which case the engine would NEED to be running to drive the compresor. If he was actually DRIVING, then there are 2 idiots about to have an interesting time......

Hmmmm I think I just felt he world get lighter, I think we just lost a couple of morons!

Good call on the air brakes. It most definately would have had them. If he drove, that was not right.
