Few pics from last night, basically a chap in a saloon with his lad (cant recall make/mpdel) took a wrong turn and went down a tight lane above Hebden Bridge, and carried on going when the track got a bit rough. My mate in his works van went to help and also got stuck so he gave me a call.
I drove over from Halifax and got the van out, unfortunately the car was stuck, really stuck, tried to pull it out and blew the front diff, as Ive not go around to fitting diff lock, I couldn't even drive myself out.
RAC had already been called but couldn't/wouldn't do anything in regards to getting the vehicle out apart from call for another firm. The other firm (in an l200, oh the shame!) pulled me out onto the road
The guy in the car had had an operation the week previous on his back which included it being plated and bolted and was at least 3 hours behind on pain relief (god knows why he was driving). Luckily my girlfriend has studied medicine so was able to assess him and phoned an ambulance whilst passing his medical history on to them as he was passing out.
Paramedics came and requested mountain rescue (despite us asking for it on the original call), police also attended.
Took two mountain rescue 110s to winch the car onto a flat surface so they could remove the driver and carrying him to an ambulance before getting the car back out onto the road as well for another recovery truck.
Left home at 8 to lend a hand for an hour and ended up getting home 5 hours later
