Are you one of those drivers?

Only when it’s a bus “driver” pulling out as I pass him/her. It’s not a stare though, more a sneer and a Nescafe sign. I don’t get to do much overtaking in London. :laughing:

Saaamon:
Are you one of those drivers that has a right good stare off into the lorry your overtaking, it happens all the time (limited to 54 :unamused: ), personally i dont mind just makes me laugh, some people even give you a nod when you look over lol.

I couldn’t help read this in a Denis Norden style. I looked across the other day and a cuddly Golliwog was smiling back :laughing:

I like to pull faces at other drivers as I do this :laughing:
I also pull faces at the VOSA guys on the A17, if they have binoculars out…Not got pulled yet :sunglasses:

When being overtaken by a left hand drive,signal them to wind window down then throw them the pi55 bottle :wink:

Martin:
When that happens I would love to lay across the seats quickly so it looks like the cab is empty :open_mouth:

Or pick my nose and flick it on his window!!! :laughing:

Or close one eye and let you head nod forward as if you are fast asleep

Why do drivers wait until you get along side the cab then knock the cruise control off? Why not do it when you first start to be overtaken.■■■■■■ me off when you have took a bit to get along side.They could have saved all that!

Be happy they do anything at all to help you get passed…

frilly curtains pulled closed and on the bunk while on `cruise control ’ , did i just pass something ?.. ooops :blush: scuse me :grimacing:

I mostly use the M5 between Cheltanham and Exeter and the M4 between Swindon and West Wales doing 50mph.
If one of you could overtake me like this it would be great.Ta youtu.be/u9GubNBf9Ac

I know I’ve posted it before but it makes me laugh all the same.

I had a bloke in a Polish LHD van give me a big cheesy grin when I overtook him on the M40 the other day…I usually give a bit of a nod if they are staring into the cab, I prefer to see where I’m going though (and watch the mirrors…)

jessicas dad:
Seeing as this weeks lorry is limited to 50mph :unamused: :imp: ( how can you do long distance general haulage at 50 mph ) everything passes me in a blur.

We used to have lorries parked up the corner of the yard no one wanted to drive as they only did 58mph :laughing: :laughing: bet they wish they had them now !

:laughing:

Undertook, surely? :laughing:

I get the feeling that these guys who do look at others as they pass may have homosexual tendency’s

Very possible, but i’m always quite disappointed that you are all so ugly. :wink:

If it’s been a long and drawn out overtake I will usually give a very sarcastic looking smile, a big thumbs up or blow them a kiss or something.

Something like this

Sorry, it isn’t until you block out my sun that I wake up and realise you are there.

As am I, so I stopped looking years ago…

Why knock the cruise control off anyways? :confused: No big deal having a dual. :sunglasses:

i think he means knock it off a couple of clicks,not turn it off,which is what i do,knock it off a bit

If it was a drop dead gorgeous blonde in a tight figure hugging t-shirt I’d give 'em a cheeky wink. If it was a woman I’d add a smile as well.

I’ve seen a couple of bang tidy girls driving, always puts a smile on my face.

There was a thread on here ages ago about a driver looking across at a Hanbury Davies driver on the M62 I think it was and he was having a crafty 5 knuckle shuffle :open_mouth: :smiley:

Supposedly it wakes you up a bit if you start to nod off. :smiley:
