Delivery van gets stuck after driver miscalculation

The trapped delivery van
A DELIVERY van visiting Waitrose in Wimborne was forced to make an unscheduled overnight stop this week.
The driver of the van attempted to enter the underground car park, which has a height restriction of two metres, but became stuck.
The vehicle proved to be so jammed in that it had to stay put overnight.
Customer Annie Chambers, who lives in Wimborne, sent in photographs of the trapped van, and said motorists had to be directed around the Waitrose car park because of the problem.
“They were still letting cars get into the car park, because the ramp is two-way,” she said. “One side goes down into the car park, and that’s where the van was trapped. The other side allows cars to come back up. Someone had to stand on the other side of the ramp to direct cars in and out.”
Store manager Ian Burdekin refused to talk to the Echo.

I think the driver had a bad smell in the cab when he did this.

I hope the next time she makes a mistake she takes a picture, sends it the Echo and let's the public pass judgement.
Customer Annie Chambers you are a disgrace, shame on you and your pathetic life.
