Slavic race to be precise.
But it is also for your knowledge : “Discrimination on the basis of nationality is usually included in employment laws[36] (see below section for employment discrimination specifically). It is sometimes referred to as bound together with racial discrimination[37] although it can be separate. It may vary from laws that stop refusals of hiring based on nationality, asking questions regarding origin, to prohibitions of firing, forced retirement, compensation and pay, etc., based on nationality.”
It was a comment on the fact that there’s a certain faction in the trucking world (of whom I am not one, by the way) who blame everything on either Poles, Stobart drivers, or agencies. Not a reflection of my actual views or nuffink.
hang on wait I’m not having discrimination on here you forgot cyclists 
one could of pulled out in front of this driver and he veered into a cottage brave risking his own life to save the guy(or lady) on the bike
or more realistic he came too fast down the hill met a car at the junction and had to plow it into the house and when I say hill I mean little slope but people do abandon cars out there to go into the spar shop across the road
when do I get my Official Trucknet CSI badge?

We’ll let’s hope he didn’t post it in works time then lol I’m not sure that calling someone from Poland a pole is derogatory I’m sure the phrase polac was the one they dislike .I’m sure most British are ok with being called Brits or Scottish scots .But that’s not what this post of the truck crash is about

‘Pole’ isn’t that what Nice Looking ■■■■ Lady’s wrap their legs around, sliding their Lady Parts up & down making it Messy ?
re using the word POLE to describe someone from Poland.
Asked a local Polish lady if POLE was offensive and should I say Polish, she told me POLE is correct.
It always feels a bit uncomfortable saying that though!
When I worked for them they were very choosy about who they set on, not sure how I sneaked past the checks though!

Nope, he/she/it was going the other way. There’s a parking area/lay-by right before the old post office building (the one he crashed into), which tapers away right in front of the building - which sticks out from other buildings. I reckon he thought it was a 2nd lane and moved into it, before finding a cottage had jumped out in front of him.
That, or a coach full of tourists came belting down the wee hill and he had to go into the lay-by to avoid them. 
Now, geez that badge !
As a side note, if anyone is ever up in the highlands, it’s worth stopping off here to see the ancient (1717) packhorse bridge that the town is named after. If you’re feeling particularly adventurous, you can take a wander across it - it’s WELL dodgy 
Ryders said theyve fixed the brakes boss!!!"
Contraflow:
Obviously an agency driver.
Why is it obvious?
Please do explain. Have you some inside knowledge on the vehicle and it’s driver?
■■■■.
Ken.
It’s all ver well saying agency, stobart, polish and cyclist but it’s a residential area and NOBODY is thinking of the children
Contraflow:
Obviously an agency driver.
How is this obviously an agency driver■■? I am an agency driver (not through choice) and have not caused any damage to anything in 10 years of driving trucks and buses! Agencies are not all full of idiots and inexperienced newbies!!!
Contraflow:

I’d guess that was a tongue in cheek comment… 
Or… the most narrow minded comment…
I’d prefer the former…
Is this old news,it looks familiar.
