Those little trailers are a nightmare, But he still made a meal of it, When the pressures on it dosn’t help.
As for them hooting the horns, I wouldn’t be able to control myself. Get out, walk over, and have a chat.
stagedriver:
I would just retaliate with my air horns every time a car blew it’s own to show I don’t give a ■■■■.Perhaps I’d get out with an iron bar too just to make them think twice.
That’s funny, I imagine you wouldn’t even get chance to wave it before you were arrested.
If it were me though and I got that many beeps it would make me take my time even more. I’d quite happily sit and watch the impatient buggers squirm while I made them wait even longer.

Always keep spare legs for the steel deck (Staging) in the cab. Just incase I need to give the trailer a whack, you know
I actually think he was responding to the impatient drivers and doing his thing
I have done this sort of thing in London, the best way of making yourself feel better about bullies in cars and in trucks, is by just taking your time I see it as a peaceful protest.
I have jumped in the bunk before now, leaving a van driver steaming, as he would`nt reverse out of the way Non confrontational confrontation
Works every time

Non confrontational confrontationWorks every time
It absolutely does
i generally get out for a look and blow a kiss to whoevers beeping ,making sure i take my time getting back into the truck,

only way to be,or hand em the keys and say get on with it.
ROG:
Why didn’t he back up in a straight line, let the traffic clear, then pull forward again to attempt the blindside ?
because the traffic in london would never clear and you would be sat their like a div till midnight because none of them ■■■■■■■■ would let you come back out again,too many selfish people in london (bit like here in brid).
like max said in max and paddy
“LONDON IS ■■■■”
It’s London, just your very presence annoys all other road users, cars, bikes and pedestrians. Hold any of them up for a brief second and they’re epileptic with rage.

I like doing things like letting people out of side streets and letting people cross the road, confuses the [zb] out of them.
Thing is, how much time have they actually lost. While they were sat there, all the traffic ahead was clearing.
No time to breathe, some folk
I’d love people to do that to me when manouvering, I’d go twice as slow, go out and look about checking and take the ■■■■, no need for it the fellas just doing his job
i used to do events for the largest council in England working on the city squares sometimes for weeks on end with rolling events
Sometimes we had the city centre manager on-site for the rig( bugger was never there at 3am on a winters night for the get-out ) to ensure we followed the approved route in the pedestrian areas with heavy vehicles any larger than a transit due to underground weight limits due to underground car-parks,tunnels and the pump-rooms for the fountains
We were only allowed to use limited amounts of white chalk or a special tape with a water based adhesive to mark positions and have seen him charge one organiser (who sprayed 2 letters about 30cm in-size )for the call-out of a five man response team to jet-wash it off
As for just screwing it round the amount of damage this could cause could run into hundreds of thousands of pounds as the price per sq m of would make an Arab wince
Just imagine the tyre scrub on the pavers

I find the ratchet wrenches (the ones with the spike on the end, can’t think of the proper name) to be a useful tool

PODGE is the name your looking for
Obviously many of the so called drivers on here havnt had to block many roads up getting into places or just to make a delivery. For those who have done it many times its like water off a ducks back, only the people that never have to do it are the ones that reckon they’d get out and, “have a word”.
