Sticks like $h1t and some self tappers - job jobbed

From an aesthetic point of view, why did they use black and white duct tape?
It would have been much better to keep to one colour or the other

 

[Bailey58]

Half a dozen plastic ties would soon sort that.

Obviously a failed limbo dancer.

Duct tape is like the Force - it has a dark side, a light side and it holds the universe together!

How much damage was caused to the bridge?

 

[Lenny HB]

A few cable ties will sort it out.

Ferry might be a tad tricky.

 

[PP Bear]

Bit of t-cut, bit of spray can paint and you wouldn’t be able to see the difference

 

[pagey]

a few more brain cells and he might have seen the bridge

As the man says, "If you can't fix it with duct tape, then you aren't using enough."

We use Gorilla tape, because it is three times stronger than Duck tape. Dunno about that but it sure keeps the kids quiet on long journeys ...

Super glue!

“Bloody Tesco barrier” !

Six years ago, in France, we visited our local Auchan supermarket. We drove into the car park, did our shopping and realised that we needed fuel. Following our original route to reach the filling station we suddenly heard a loud bang which made us both duck. A swing height barrier, open during the day and closed at night, had not been secured in its open position and the wind had swung it out into the side of our motorhome, leaving a dent and a long scrape along the side.

To say we were not impressed is an understatement.

Probably the same driver

 

[Brody]

Our old Nissan Navara pickup was held in several places by duck tape for about 2 years +

It only went past the point of no return when Mr B went to pick me up some block paving for my allotment. As he was coming down the lane I was waiting at the bottom to unload and noticed that the back had become detached from the cab, it couldn't be saved even with tape

RIP truck.

Hi all. Many years ago we were driving in the mountains when the tail pipe fell off the exhaust. I waked back and picked it up. That night I tried to refit it but the end of the pipe was crushed. So I cut slots in the other end and stuffed it on backwards. It was fine and I fact went through three MOTs without a problem.
So keep a junior hack, spare exhaust clamp and small tub of exhaust paste in my ‘get me home’ box - along with cable ties and duct tape.
Of course all these things are available to buy in shops but it is just our luck to need them when in the wilds away from supermarkets

Lost my exhaust in Switzerland on a Saturday. NOTHING open and travelling back on the Sunday.
Fixed it with a peanut tin and some big jubilee clips. The garage back home told me that it had welded itself on and they had to angle grind it off

I had to eat the peanuts first, natch.

I like watching , I was amazed that some States in the US don't have any "MOT" type requirements and some of the vehicles and their owner's repairs are downright lethal !

Instead of eating big McDonald's burgers in the back they should have been in the front.

Driving a lorry in Romania (1990) this was a rigid pulling a trailer with 2 central axles, tyre wall blew out on one of the wheels, there was a small roadside tyre place who in those days had virtually no stock, certainly not new tyres so the owner took off the original tyre, found a smaller one that could be fitted inside along with a patched inner tube and put the whole lot back on, it lasted about 5km so we pulled over again, took the wheel off, punched a hole through the trailer floor, jacked up the hub and chained it up to a bar across the hole in the floor and off we went singing "3 wheels on my wagon and still rolling along!" it didn't end well, not the "repair", something else but that's another story.

Those were the days!
