Two things about GTI annoy me - the first is that all cars are fuel injected these days, and the second is that so many cars have worn the badge despite being bloated whales compared to the original GTIs. I'll let the first one slide if the car's a proper heritor of the GTI mantle.

I'm still not seeing what you're trying to say. Are you suggesting that if a company was liable to pay compensation in the event of a breach in safety, they wouldn't plan to make sure it didn't happen?
How does it work any differently? In either case it's a deterrent, with fines/punishments for failing to keep things safe.
I think your 5klbs figure is way off - and it makes a difference even if it's only a few hundred pounds off, when multiplied by twenty-one. They're probably more like 3k lbs - around 1500kg.
All labels that hark back to something completely irrelevant annoy me. GTI, for example. Or Ghia on modern Fords.
That's a car transporter, not a standard trailer. You are aware of that, right? And, by the way, I'd like to see you lift a trailer - of course they're heavy.
You may be able to 'clearly see' it. I can't. The video's too low definition to be sure, but earlier in the clip you get a good look from behind and the deck is clearly one piece the full width. The proportions are wrong for it to be made of pallets, and if they are pallets, the vans have fallen through and are resting …
Hobz said the same thing. I'm not seeing it. Looks to me like rails along the edge of the platform. If you're right, and it's not designed that way, then yes, it's a ludicrous thing to do.
