Big Rig Gets Stuck on Golf Course

  • FORE! Semi Driver Gets Stuck on Golf Course. Talk about a hole in one. This driver got himself stuck at a fancy club golf course, so we dispatched Alex in our 75ton rotator to handle the job. Navigating to this spot was not too bad, but the pressure was on as the course staff was trying to rush this guy out. We understand, as this is a distraction to the golfers, but the driver did not make this easy.
    What should have been a single winchout turned into several winchouts plus a trailer lift! The driver had issues turning the wheel to follow the trailer, so he kept getting himself stuck in the same spot. Eventually, the staff told us they no longer wanted to drive the truck forward anymore so the course would not get further damaged. That's when Alex had to back up to it, and just swing the trailer all the way over.
    Was not the hardest job, but still a bit tricky and required a lot of patience. What do you guys think?

With the amount of shipping today, instead of 20% steering wheel holders, we have 60%. I really don't understand how so many dump truck idiots drive away with their box raised.

      Your absolutely right, because at the end of the day, you can't polish a turd. And instead of the driver getting bent around the axle, he should learn to open his ears, and maybe he would learn something. But alas, you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make them drink.

    Why would a golf course allow a heavy truck as this to drive onto the grounds? They should have a maintenance area to unload mulch and other items, and then use their turf equipment to take the much over their property. That makes more sense for a golf course. I blame the grounds manager for this kind of failure, not the driver. You don't allow a heavy truck/trailer to run over the property. Dumb!
