Nope, I don’t do any of that - do you? Makes you a lunatic - apparently…
But taking a picture (pick up phone, power up, find camera icon, switch it on, line up screen, push button and hold it steady - all flat out on the limiter) is ABSOLUTELY fine, of course.

You got me - I’m still at school. As all the drivers who’ve pm’d me about S&K can confirm

No mirrors.Correct. You can see the mark on the door where he’s obviously hit something and taken his mirrors clean off. Hope he gets pulled by Vosa.
Or, just maybe, someone’s hit him?
Impossible. Left ■■■■■■ = propably Eastern European. It’s always their fault 
Saaamon:
Anyone who thinks it would be safe to drive a left ■■■■■■ with no offside mirror needs to be sectioned.
What about British bosses attempting to send RHD vans without left mirrors to Switzerland? 
Oh look Orys is bored and wants a multi page fight. Despite no one mentioning eastern Europe, none of us even knowing where the truck is from and none of us making an issue of his nationality whatever it is. You just love feeling persecuted don’t you.

As for the first point, there is one thing: Sense of humour, google it. And then, I marked the non-serious bits with the picture of green, laughing face to make it easier for beginners like you Then, after some training, you will be able to laugh even at things that are related to yourself
As for the second bit: it actually happened. The nationality of the boss is relevant on the basis that it helps to show that the missing mirror was actually on the other side than the driver. But it is also a reasonable boss and after I explained why it is not going to happen, he organized a replacement van for me. My point was that sometimes driver has not much to say. In my situation if I was asked to drive a van without mirror to Switzerland and back, it woudl be propably parked under the nearest police station and I would be on my way home by hithchiking. But some drivers might not be able to just ditch their work at the opposite end of Europe and try luck in driving damaged vehicle in hope that it will be somehow. I am not telling that it’s a wise thing to do, but it might explain something
Good night, Luke. Get more relaxed and enjoy the weekend, it starts soon!
■■■■■■■ menace on the road without proper mirrors, no matter where you’re from.
Allegedly, he was tugged on the A14 last week. But because the police where only targeting real underworld criminals with exceptional dangerous issues like no seat belts and supping coffee whilst driving. The mirror thing was over looked as it did not fit into Suffolk polices remit for that week.
Although next week he needs to be careful, as Essex police are targeting Broken mirrors and teddy’s on the dash board. Suffolk Police are hitting drivers for having more then 50 litres of derv in their tanks as its creating a market for Diesel thefts in the area and buggering up their crime figures.
How lucky was that?
Trukkertone:
Johnny Foreigner doesn’t use his mirrors anyway, so does he REALLY need them ■■
Imagine, how many Johnny English I can see day by day not even taking a look in the mirrors. One of them wanted to pass me in a roundabout… 
Own Account Driver:
I think the damage looks like it occurred prior to joining the motorway. It isn’t ‘maybe this or maybe that’ it’s a dangerous idiot doing something dangerously idiotic. He hasn’t even got a fresnel lens either.Say he’s driving to the dealers, well what if on the way in a more built up area there’s a right turn and a cyclist comes up his o/s.
Or he was just asleep in a service area and somebody hit his truck by a wrong turning then left. It’s happend to me on the A66, at the cafe.

And for beginners like you just I’d like to point out jokes are supposed to be funny. A smiley doesn’t make any sentence a joke.

Now you have done it, and if this topic reaches 55 pages i am blaming you!
