"Vorovaika" is not only the name of a chanson group or something related to crime. This is also the name of a crane equipped with a telescopic boom and placed on a base - a chassis from a cargo boom. Its other names are self-loader, truck with CMU, crane-board. But why is this car a "thief"? Maybe because it is mobile, capable of lifting heavy loads with its small dimensions - just like a real thief. Or maybe because this transport is sometimes used for illegal purposes. One way or another, let's see what the "thief" is capable of and where it can come in handy.

Permitted use of the thief

The law allows the use of a "thief" car specifically for two purposes:

• Construction. Here, this crane-manipulator is needed for unloading and loading various building materials, household goods, etc. "Vorovaika" is indispensable for both small private and global construction projects.
• Car tow truck. The crane-manipulator is the main equipment of services on evacuation of motor transport. You can’t do without it after a serious accident, when the affected car has a damagedchassis, wheels or brakes.

Forbidden operation of the recovery crane

The thief car got its name to some extent because of the following options for its operation:

• In the field of "black" lumberjacks. The latter use a manipulator to remove cut wood in areas where tree cutting is prohibited.
• Theft of vehicles. The hijackers use the "thief" as a kind of tow truck. They just evacuate the car they like against the wishes of its rightful owner to a secluded place.
• Theft of metals, scrap metal, heavy loads. A reliable and trouble-free crane-manipulator allows you to load all this stuff in record time and take it out of the owner's territory.
