Don’t worry about it mate, if it didn’t happen there it would have happened somewhere else. If they choose to be penny wise and pound foolish, it’s their problem. :neutral_face:

Serves the company when will they learn

This also happens in lorry parks and services. You can’t win.

No agreed but you can narrow the chances

It’s other lorry drivers who do it.
