Love the obligatoruly knee jerk reaction comment by one. :unamused:
‘‘Drivers should be like pilots and be breath tested before every time they get in the cab’’ :unamused:

That’s the trouble, a small portion of the public see us as, drunk bunny killing, lunitics,… Especially the Home counties retired civil servants. When we go thundering thro their Villages in our Massive juggernauts, delivering to their local Waitrose.

The reason there ain’t any truck parks in or near their towns, because being that type of ■■■■ is the main qualification to get on their councils.

I think most of the public just have a beef because we’re limited to 56mph when they want to floor it all the way, especially when they’re on the School Run and displaying “Baby on Board” signs :unamused:

That pointless tirade of the general public venting their spleen is why I avoid social media, everyone is “angry” or “furious” all the time, whatever happened to “I’m a bit miffed today”, or “tsk tsk, signed Disgusted of Tunbridge Wells” ? When I was a lad you had to write a letter to Barry Took on Points of View and wait for it to be read out on the telly :laughing:

The judge…

Should forbid this man from holding an HGV licence ever again.

The Traffic Commissioner most likely will.

That’s always assuming it was issued by DVLA and comes under the jurisdiction of any UK Traffic Commissioner.

They haven’t released his name but I would bet the farm it’s “Bogdan” or “Piotr” or “Stanislav” or somesuch.

Sounds a bit of a lightweight if you ask me…

Forget the name the real question is was it Vodka or Slivovitz.
