lorry could be full of polystyrene however

The fact that the load isn't heavy enough to rip through the tarpaulin would suggest it could be.

Looks like a load of old ballix to me! ;)

All that weight pressing down on the wee Polo and no broken lights under the mud guard of the lorry? :?

Has anyone ever seen a lorry with that much chassis behind the rear axle? If so post it up!

Lucky day for the Polo driver.
Reckon the side rail of the lorry has landed on the engine block of the Polo which has taken the weight.

In this country you're only allowed 60% overhang behind the rear axle legally... that certainly looks a lot more than 60% but then they might not have any laws on it over there.

I dont think its a photoshop. It musnt be a heavy lorry as its only got one axle at the rear which determins how much it can carry. Looks like they have used a normal sized frame but only put one axel on it, imagine it with 2 more at the rear and that would look like normal. Musnt be as strict over there with there laws. Lucky driver alright.
