Not exactly sure Daz but it's in Canada, their driving on ice on roads that only exist 2 months a year, the other 10, all water, -40 degrees. On every Wed/Sat for a bit.
     My UK class 1 is recognised in most countries but you could'nt pay me enough to do that!!!
      Been told there's some good bits on youtube. :y

Did a demo at work the other day for a customer. We drove a transit van over a piece of glass that was 19mm thick.  :o

It didn't break by the way.  :y

But if that glass broke, you wouldn't plummet to the bottom of a freezing cold river, then drown ;D

I saw this recently on SKY. If I remember rightly one guy only works these couple of months and earns a good years salary, seem to remember though that they drive just about 24/7.
One benefit, you don’t have to turn it round often, and when you do there’s ‘more than 40 acres’  
Can’t remember the little towns name, but I did, and went on to Google Earth to see the area, check it out.
