Car driver taking photos of my truck

He took your picture then shouted ‘knob’ well i’m sorry mate but what you’ve got there is a ‘boyfriend’ :wink: :wink:

See 'em all the time round here. Driving anything from cars to B doubles, chomping away on a hamburger complete with all the salad squirting out and having a go at a milk shake etc. ■■■■■■■ beetroot juice and BBQ sauce all over me keks and seat, not to mention the dashboard. Nearly killed meself one day when when my hand slipped on the steering wheel, bloody stuff gets everywhere.

Also what is the point of these blue ‘unsuitable for HGV’ signs… They just get ignored and then mean nothing because you often have to go through them. All they seem to be is another stick that can be used to beat you with if you happen to get in an accident.

They provide a very good indication that the route isn’t really suitable for HGVs, and it might be a good idea to check that you really need to go that way…?

Quite right. And I’d be very cautious of going down one before I’d parked up and had a good look on google maps to see what I was facing.

I wish there was more. On nights people park their cars on narrow roads on both sides so they don’t need to walk it seems. The problem is if there’s no signs and I cant see the problem I can find myself in a lot of grief. Twice I’ve had this. And it’s not nice trying to wake up the right person at 3am. From now on I’ll call the law and let them sort it.

The internet solution is to never get into that situation. But I might have had 2/3 miles of “tight” before this selfish obstruction hits me. And I’m not attempting to reverse back. It’s selfish parking that gets me… not the roads or bends. I’d like to see the police towing these cars.

taking a photo can really rile folk. few years ago i snapped a small ferryboat as it was docking and the captain came over to me right in my face asking me why i was doing it. i replied youre a tourist attraction and he said you dont go taking close ups like that . im a big bloke otherwise i feel hed have gone further. left me thinking he had something to hide.

Be careful mate, is it worth it? Reading news today. 8 people killed this year by a single punch. You just never know who or what could confront you.

8 people, one punch? Jeez it must’ve been either Chuck Norris or Ronnie bloody Pickering I reckon!

Wasn’t the punch that killed them but their heads smacking against the pavement as they landed on the ground.

If I’d been asked to pick a person who wouldn’t “get it” you’d have been right up there. :wink:

Are you daft?

Given a single punch killed 8 people. He’s obviously talking about someone poisoning the stuff they drink at the xmas party. Some people hod a grudge. And no car driver could compete with a fully-fledged truck driver. So they go sneaky and poison you and your colleagues.

Always funny when the insufferable know it alls show that they really don’t know it all.
