IMHO, the driving was of such a low standard, and foolishly publiscised on YouTube, that the national press might even take an interest in the possible Court case. Given the anti-truck rhetoric engaged in by some sections of the media, this whole episode will probably reflect badly on the rest of us.
Dare we wonder whether the sentiments expressed in this thread will be accurately represented in any media reports.
It might be interesting to see the names of those charged with any offences in connection with this so-called “fun.”
Lets just wait and see what happens, knowing the state of the judicial system in this country the driver will probably get a slap on the wrist and an all expenses paid holiday because of all the stress he endured at the hands of the naughty boys and girls on truck net
I ll have you all know that I have forwarded the You Tube link to a pal in the Met police who according to her have a dedicated team that investigate photographic/video footage criminal activities.

Trucknetuk is for professional drivers and those with an interest in the industry, what I don’t understand is why are you here Bailey? you clearly have no interest other than be antagonistic towards other members WHY? if you ever want information then this the place to be, so exactly what is your point and what do you hope to achieve by this childish behaviour?

err no so because i dont agree with your action towards this thread you seem to think i am here to wind people up ffs man can you not diagree with people or what thought this was a forum no i dont agree the way some have told the police so what is you problem man
Flipping Cones and doing burn outs are fine in the right place. There are truck shows which take place at race tracks and drag strips where drivers can have fun with their vehicles in the safety of controlled contidions to amuse themselves and onlookers.
All good fun with no danger to themselves or any opnlookers.
This guy obviously thinks its great fun to spank cones off the road. Cones that are there for a purpose to filter traffic safely along the highway.
The burn out I can live with - as that seemed to be taking place on a side road with no other vehicles in the vicinity and not a public highway but the cones matter goes a bit deeper.
I dont know if you are a driver yourself Bailey but if soo how long have you been on the road? Surely it cant be that long to be condoning behaviour such as this. Maybe the cone flipper thought he was only having a bit of fun and did not think about the bigger picture. Hopefully, if he has read the opinions of those on here then maybe he will rethink his behaviour and become a more responsible driver in the future.

IF it gets to Court, he’ll get some idea of how acceptable his behaviour is.
Since BAILEY has already had his laugh, he won’t mind if some of us laugh when it’s our turn, will he

Hi BAILEY, I actually agree with you there.
Yes BAILEY You’re absolutely right, this is a forum. The films were posted and we’ve seen them. OK so far
Next, people commented on them, that’s also what forums are for, so are we still OK so far
Maybe the comments you’ve had weren’t quite what you expected, but after all this is also what forums are for. Surely you can’t expect professional drivers to just blindly agree with you, can you
I’ll be the first to say that you’ve received a very mixed reaction so far, but doesn’t the number of people “for” and “against” the fun in knocking traffic cones about tell you anything at all
Having posted something like you did and then got the reaction you’ve had, would that suggest anything to you
Now BAILEY, since this is a forum, may I please have your answers to the questions I asked you
To shorten it right down: How would you react if you suffered some loss or damage caused by the guy on the videos you posted
so what about the rest of you tube ya gonna give them to the police ffs bunch of doogooder,s man ffs ya would sit there all day with link,s coming out ya behind
