The meteor missed but the truck didn't. Seriously, what a shock for the three workers inside, pleased to hear they are ok. It's good to see so many folk rush to help
After seeing that, it is clear that Red Funnel need to think about which lane they ask an Artic to pull into. Given the large number of HGVs that pass through there, you would expect a bit more awareness of the space needed for turning. Good that there were no "Life Changing" injuries.
Good to see there was a fast response from people to help those in the kiosk at the time, and glad that the injured lady only had minor injuries. One question i do have is whether the webcams will be back on, as it appears they are all offline.
@@AndreiTupolev Thanks for your reply. I've found I can access through UA-cam, directly. However, the website I was watching them from before appears to have suspended them.
I bet the initials for the next company will be S.W.I.F.K, should have been Swing Wide It'sa Friggin Trailer, but you can guess what the K stands for!! lol, glad no-one seriously injured though, and hope all staff make a proper and safe recovery.
Later close up views from the Box/Boat Show cam clearly show the 'Armco' barrier (painted in black/yellow diagonal stripes) protecting the kiosk. The barrier is no higher than the wheels of a truck. A trailer, even a caravan, does not immediately follow the path of the tractor. This is particularly true when the trailer has multiple axles because one or two axles are 'scrubbing' sideways. When the vehicle is turning right the overhang behind the axle is moving to the left. Ideally, every vehicle manoeuvring in a confined space should have an observer (banksman?); maybe Red Funnel will be required to provide qualified and insured 'observers' in the future? Disclaimer: I have never had an HGV licence and the largest vehicle I have driven in a confined space was a 10.3m/10.6m, single rear axle Leyland National Bus. On one occasion I reversed it through two ninety degree turns to the bulk diesel tank but found it impossible to drive out forwards! The majority of HGV drivers, especially the RF 'shunters' demonstrate exceptional skills when manoeuvring forty plus foot trailers.
I never knew the building completely fell down ! Not the start to your holiday the red car wants who gets damaged by the building hope the check in desk steward wasn't hurt when the roof fell in !
There is a web cam in olden we should be able to see Iona docked. The people in the cafe on the port play music loud and wave their flags everyone sings . You will get a good view from port side all along the prom deck
I've driven similar trailers, where the trailer wheels are too far forward from the rear of the trailer. Particularly when stood in the offside lane at traffic lights waiting to turn right. On turning the rear of the trailer goes right in the nearside lane. Luckily I never came to grief but only by keeping a keen eye on the cars on my nearside.
I seen this when it happened on ferry cam and it’s exactly what I said as it turns the back corner of the trailer catches the roof of the kiosk and drags it slightly side ways then It collapses forward it was an accident waiting to happen the kiosks should have been further back towards the entrance to allow for trucks red funnel clearly haven’t used their brains on this one who puts a kiosk there where they know trucks need the space to turn this was clearly designed with cars only in mind
Guy takes a photo at 3.15 by the red car in C11. Was thinking the same thing, it's great people are more concerned for those inside then spotted him taking a photo. I can't moan too much cause I know our brains do it to be like "You won't believe me so I have the photo proof"
I dont think it was the deivers fault, he basically coudnt really moved anywhere beacuse of where the cars were, i dont really think its to blame on anyone except from the architects
I agree it’s the fact red funnel haven’t accounted for the fact lorries are longer these days because they take more stuff in one trip to save on trips to cut costs and save the environment so they are longer and sometimes taller a few other comments are basically blaming the driver for rushing when his path wasn’t clear but where he was going to park was clear it’s just the kiosk is in a silly place when they expect lorries to turn and drive and park down the side opposite if they are saying that’s where lorries are to park then at least give them a good turning Circle ⭕️ cannot expect a vehicle 0f that size to be able to turn and have a kiosk in the same place it was always an accident waiting to happen the other saying it’s the drivers fault are clearly stupid making it out like he’s done it on purpose because he wouldn’t wait until he could move but he could move he had finished at the kiosk also who makes a kiosk that flimsy when it a no brainer it could be hit by large vehicles
They maybe able to get a marquee tent as a temporary replacement from the boat show when that finishes . It’s a very confined area that red funnel have for ferry check ins .
Driver probably did get out, it’s highly unlikely they made a run for it. Not like they could get far if they did. Besides this really doesn’t look like the drivers fault.
Ruke 101 of trucking taught in the early stages of getting a C-Class licence is know your vehicle length, and any potential dangers like tail swing into traffic. 100% not any companies fault unless they hired an under qualified driver, or an unlicenced driver. so the blame lies 100% on the driver for this, as it wasn't brake failure, it wasn't a mechanical issue, it didn't grow legs and run towards the kiosk before the driver seen or heard. the way to avoid it is to pull a couple of feet over when pulling off from the kiosk, and then turning a bit more, then drive straight a few feet, then turn more when you know you are clear to turn safely.
So what happened to the idiot driver, arrested? License cancellation for life? Black listed from Red Funnel Ferries for life? Some people should never be given a license.
Bit of a nutter telling the driver to park in the bay that's so close to the kiosk and the site is so unsuitable for the trucks anyway. This is the problems we get when LGV drivers are ordered about by people who've never driven anything bigger than a transit van!
Despite the incident great to see the Red Funnel workers and members of the public come together to help. Hope the lady who went to hospital is ok.
Only taken to hospital as a precaution shipmate.
Great to see how many people immediately rushed to help.....
Another professional driver (as we are so often reminded) at work again showing their professional techniques. Kudos to the people that ran to help.
Luckily, everyone was ok shipmate
Hope there ok? nice to see all running to the aid of those inside. Wonderful people THANK YOU ALL. Wishing all involved a speedy recovery.
How heart warming to see all the people, staff and members of the public dashing to help. Restores your faith in humanity.
So lucky there were no serious injuries. Well done to the staff and public for quick response. Hope all are ok.
Oh my goodness that must have been very frightening. Glad no one was seriously hurt and good to see so many people helping.
Luckily just a few scratches from what we hear shipmate.
Good to see so many rush to help and glad the 3 staff inside were OK, even if one was to hospital as a precaution.
I’m glad the staff were ok, must’ve been quite the shock. Big strong poles in concrete each corner I think next time.

Glad you gave us an update Captain we heard about it happening nice to know about what happened to the staff thanks
They asked the driver to make a very tight right hand turn . He should have been allowed straight on. Hopefully all injuries will heal quickly.

Nice to South Today this evening was basically the Solent Ship show!
I am glad that the staff is allright. I watched it live yesterday.
Hope that the staff are all fine , must have been really scary .
Don't know why the moved the kiosk to there is not ideal for anyone !
I think someone forgot they had a tail swing. Must be causing havoc now with the check in desk gone. Another great catch Captain

I would always take both lanes, not just to annoy car drivers, which they thought I was doing, but to keep them out of the way.

Red Funnel don't use their brains on much it seems, given the chaos that is the entrance and exit from the terminal.
@@cjeam9199 Care to suggest a solution?
Seen the accident hope their doing ok my prays are with them
Did not see one person just stood there with there phone filming ! glad all are ok.

I hope all the check-in people are ok, we were though there 3 weeks ago
Red Funnels dancing man was last seen doing the quick step right out of the way....glad all invoved are ok...
.
What with the fire last week it’s been a bit of a run of bad luck for Red Funnel
I dont think it was the deivers fault, he basically coudnt really moved anywhere beacuse of where the cars were, i dont really think its to blame on anyone except from the architects

@@Thisistrulyoddtv_Mark exactly, its made out of matchsticks and was put in the middle of a runway
It’s not a lorry lane… lorry lanes are much further forward of the booth.
what a knob, and they are on about making the Class 1 test easier to get over the driver shortage
Looked like a house of cards coming down...
It really did shipmate
Oh my ..😥Glad all staff ok ..Nice to see public and staff rushing over..
The Great British Public United 2 help
The response was impressive and very quick shipmate
Wow! Probably a tight turn with the cars in those lanes?? Glad the occupiers were ok.
I think the truck tried to avoid the Truckee behind him and the blue van but forgot about the tail swing
Shared on Facebook and Linkedin
Oops, hope they OK x
They maybe able to get a marquee tent as a temporary replacement from the boat show when that finishes . It’s a very confined area that red funnel have for ferry check ins .
Glad everyone seems o.k.hope they don’t prosecute the driver, the driver will be horrified.
Maybe now red funnel will wake up this yard is a balls up end of
Strange place to have the check in desk close to the park up lanes. An accident waiting to happen
Red coats came from everywhere and the fastest Redcoats known to man.
I wonder did the people in the small car finally get on the ferry ?
That's the real question?
will this camera ever come back live
Not long now shipmate
Please god hope the young lady is ok.
god isn't real
Wow, Did the truck driver even get out of the Truck? Or did he run away?

Driver probably did get out, it’s highly unlikely they made a run for it. Not like they could get far if they did. Besides this really doesn’t look like the drivers fault.
Always remember (TAIL SWING) When driving
Hey do you do Cowesweeks radio.?
Будка что из спичечных коробков сделана???
I've made houses of cards which were sturdier than that.

Left hand down a bit...
The improvised replacement has more than a passing resemblance to 3DBenchy, the test print toy tugboat
Oops a daisy 🤦
Someone needs to get a tape measure and start measuring things..
So what happened to the idiot driver, arrested? License cancellation for life? Black listed from Red Funnel Ferries for life? Some people should never be given a license.
I wuoldn't be surprised shipmate
Oh my lord. Was there anyone in it? That brown car got a bit more of a surprise welcome than they expected
yes three check-in staff. He updates their condition in the video.... Must have been incredibly frightening for that to come crashing down around you.
This was seen by someone who is also a subscriber to Railcam (UA-cam channel) at Crewe
..and?

Ooops!
well said!
Well they say things happen in threes captain.
0:52. AAAHHH!!!! NNNNOOOO!!! Need you say more.
With any truck, there are drivers and there are screwdrivers!
haha and to think they have been worried about a bit of Rona for 18 months.....
LMAO WTF
End of days 😂
Any idiotic cyclists hurt in this, after all they do like to dice with lorry drivers
I have a god so keep your opinions to yourself
Flip flop driver driving a UK truck.... you pay peanuts 🥜 well u all know the rest. Hope everyone is 👌 🆗️
