Another Sun attack on drivers, DAF doesn’t look like it’s moving, and can’t see what coach driver is doing wrong. 
Daily Express has four photos of drivers allegedly being distracted. When I have taken photos of moving objects, these were supposedly travelling at 60mph at South Mimms, there is normally a bit of blur of the out of focus objects. Strangely, it doesn’t appear on these photos.
not seen the stories so wo.t comment on them but a pro camera with a decent photographer can easily take a sharp photo of a truck moving at 60 and faster vehicles as well. all down to shutter speeds.

Agree with the OP can’t see what the coach driver is doing wrong, he can’t stop on the hard shoulder can he? As for the other 2 well they certainly made themselves an easy target.
Coach driver is having a ■■■, not allowed on a psv but don’t think the sun knows that.

I have never understood why people purchase this poor excuse for journalism and now it would appear that in order to shift more copies of its lamentable dirge it is turning on the very customer base it depends on.
Oh they will jazz it up and try and say that their champions of public safety but really they are just guttersnipes.
Its a bit like a cockroach trying to eat its self.
Yes the guy eating cereal is in the wrong but what does it say about your, work, life balance if you need to eat when crawling along in traffic.
The guy with his head in his hands for a split second is probably wondering why he is not at home in bed and now to top it all,a national rag is giving him a kicking.
The snap of the blokes arse aint even worth mentioning.
And all this from a publication that has half naked, ■■■■■■■■■■■■ women commenting on the big issues in society today.
What a detestable rag.

Agree with every word!
I make no apology for my own view on that rag: It cater’s to mostly unintelligent people (especially white van man who reads it while munching on his egg and bacon butties) who are easily influenced by the crap they read within it’s pages.
My own children were banned from reading it up until the day they left school.
(Then they went straight out and bought it to see what the fuss was about! 
)
Whats worse ?
A driver eating cereal in a traffic jam.
or
A pack of rabid shutter clicking morons racing through city streets just to capture B list celebs on a night out.
Oh yes and whilst im having a rant can the sun explain why journalists have some of the highest insurance premiums of all professions ■■?
Fail. The coach and the car are both in traffic and not moving, hence why the shot is zoomed in so you can’t see all the other stationary traffic around them . Not sure what’s going on with the DAF but I get the impression the traffic is not moving too fast there either, although that doesn’t excuse (what appears to be) a bowl in his hands.
Typical poor journalism to whip up the public into a hysterical frenzy over nothing. And clearly another slow news day.
He was among 14 lorry or van drivers The Sun caught in one hour with one hand - or none - on the wheel. They were travelling at up to
just one hand on the wheel ffs, and upto 70mph!!! more sun [zb]…
i find that a little snack , crisps chock bar helps relive bordom and getting tired…
you would think everyone at the sun newspaper were all sqeaky clean and never did drugs, had affairs, drove without 2 hands… and no doubt the rag will be getting worried labour are just 1 point behind the torys, no doubt they will be jumping ship yet again… bunch of pricks

While I’m sure they’ve got a better camera than mine, I’m sure the steer axle wheel nuts would be blurred if it was travelling at any speed.
Course, he shouldn’t be eating a bowl of cereal but one aspect of the job which has changed beyond all recognition is the cameras everywhere waiting to catch you out. This constant surveillance of citizens was out biggest criticism of Communist countries.
at least they didn’t print that picture of me picking me nose on the M40
Personally I don’t think I have managed 70mph at that point of M25, pictures probably taken whilst queueing to get into services, that would be more realistic.
I am well ■■■■■■ off with everything in this country at the moment…So tomorrow I am purchasing a ski mask to wear whilst at the wheel.
As far as I know it is not illegal, I may get pulled over more often, but I am more than happy to explain my reasons for wearing the mask and besides, no different to wearing a Burkha is it. 
maybe we should have a wear a Burkha to work day 
…
I wouldn’t wipe my hairy fat backside with The Sun, let alone read it (that goes for the Mirror, the Sport and the Star too)! I wouldn’t eat Weetabix either, gets stuck in the dentures!!!

I wonder how many car drivers they could have caught doing on a hand held mobile in the same time?
What about changing gear? I still need one hand off the steering wheel for that.
Typical Sun propaganda
I havent even read a second hand copy of the Sun since about 1990 when they appeared on a services in France during a french truckers strike.
They turned up with a couple of dolly birds and were handing out a Mars bar to each driver.
In the papers following was the standard line…
Your soaraway Sun helping our boys .
What a load of crap, get a better read from the Beano

Or me perusing through a copy of Readers Wives I found in a truck I drove today (not mine,in for MOT and the driver in question’s off sick!)
