Yes, parts of it. I used to work in the city centre

I guess it would need more workforce, vehicles and equipment to work at night. Plus danger for accident higher. But its 3 lane road, they could do blockade on two lanes and leave one free, repeat twice to cover all lanes during day (at least thats how they do it in some European countries).

Or wait

Why? Because they were protecting the work force further up? Maybe you should work on the motorway or even break down on a motorway, you would want them to help you then.

@@deanrogers6028 they don't help anybody, they're a completely useless waste of oxygen and yes I have broken down on the motorway and I called Green flag. When the shit hits the fan you won't see a traffic officer until the problem is resolved. All the money wasted employing these lazy sods to park up on the motorway and toss it off is shameful.

@@Dan-zb7vn, your sir are an idiot! You obviously aware are you not that NON of the 3 big breakdown companies, ie the AA RAC & G/F will not recover you from a live running lane. So if you breakdown or crash and cannot reach a designated safe area such as an emergency bay or service area you will need US to remove you from said live lane. Also WE deal with a multitude of other incidents that would seriously delay or put you at risk on your journey. Such as debris in the road, removing crashed vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists, animals both alive and dead, the list goes on and on. WE deal with over 2000 incidents per day to keep the roads clear. So, it seems the only tosser here is ... Well you!

​@@Dan-zb7vn I hope you drive through a block one day straight into something they were trying to clear

@@macca696 these clowns are as pathetic as you 😂

You really are a tosser aren't you!

Hams Hall fishery is a carp syndicate, they don't have a website, but you can find them on Facebook. There's usually a waiting list

@@s1opp cheers mate I thought it was the bird watching place next to it always wanted to try there 🎣

I have to be fair to them, one of them did tell me that they were fixing potholes further down the motorway. It's just my crappy dashcam didn't pickup the audio. You're right though, they could have walked down the line and spread the message

@@s1opp, we don't walk down between the rows of traffic for more than two or three vehicles for one simple reason, The further we go down the less control we have over the traffic at the front and the less we can see. Just because someone at the front says they will stay where they are doesn't mean they will and if we have moved down the traffic we may miss the fact a vehicle has moved. And if we miss that it could potentially put workers at risk further slong the road as we wouldn't be able to warn them.

@@deanrogers6028 Thank you for explaining, that makes a lot of sense

You'll be glad to know, I don't have any more fishing stuff on my old tapes

Still have the rods/reels/alarms/pod. Sadly couldn't hold on to the hair

Glad you enjoyed it.

Yes, they do and the repairs were before the next entry so it doesn't matter if people use it.

Yes, we can. We have a number of legal powers available to us in the course of doing our jobs. One of which is to stop traffic should there be a need for it and it is mandatory under UK law that you obey the instructions of a traffic officer in full uniform. We also have a high level of knowledge of our local network and will not stop a block in an area where it would endanger any crews working in the road.

Or maybe you're the stupid one for not realising there is quite a distance from that off slip to the on slip and the repairs needed to be carried out between the two!

You are right, but there are 12 pegs, with a maximum of 7 anglers at any one time. So there's always 5 free pegs

A lot of fishery owners would of put more pegs in especially on day ticket lakes

They stopped the traffic to fill some pot holes.

To them that's a good days work. Bet them boys sleep well that night, bless.

Didn't you read the video details? Rolling pothole repairs are a quick & efficient way to make road safe (especially for bikes!) with minimal delay.

@@Vanman-ed9og Repairing the potholes is better than damaging your tyres/wheels!

@@Vanman-ed9og, its 'slept'. And yes I did, but thanks for your concern!

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it

Thank you for your support.

No relevance at all. I just needed something to drown out whatever was playing on the radio and avoid copyright claims.

Glad you enjoyed it, Thanks for your support.

Just so you know, they are now Highways England Traffic Officers (HETOs) and have been for a number of years. And unfortunately not all light bars are fitted with a low power mode, and some employers fail to fit the option to do so into their vehicles if it is there. Luckily 9 times out of 10 HETOs do turn down the power at night but that isn't always the case.

Hi, it's called fending, they park on an angle to use the side batten-burgh stripping as a high visibility warning sign if that makes sense

Steven Mernagh - Wasn’t it a joke.

Its NOT supposed to be parked straight! FFS!!!

Some people take things far too seriously. Your wives must be used to boring. If you don't see the funny side, don't comment
