Just found this little jem on a forum talking about the new HGV speed limits.
Dave P Ken • 13 days ago
Nothing wrong with the HGV, just the morons driving them. Today I had the misfortune to be driving the M1 - M25 between Milton Keynes and Essex in appallingly wet conditions and was amazed at the number of brain-dead HGV drivers sitting in lane 2, playing racing with their equally brainless mates in lane 1, leaving car drivers in lane 3 completely blind due to the spray being kicked-up. Is it right that in order to pass an HGV test you have your brain removed - or don`t you people get one at birth?
Who is “Dave P Ken” . 13 days ago ? Are they two seperate people ? My user name on here, and most other forums, FB and Twitter, is Dave Penn and I didn’t write what you have quoted.
Which forum was this on? We could all go on and register and give the bell end a load of grief. Probably one of those retards that drive a done up 1.0 litre Vauxhall Nova with about as much power as an hairdryer but puts a “Big bore 4” exhaust on to make it sound like a V8, has it lower than a snakes belly so it bottoms out and a 50 pence piece, has nicked the bass bins from the local Roxy nightclub in Basilden and fitted them in his boot and drives around the local sink estates doing about 3mph bobbing his head up and down listening to “Gangsta” rap looking like a puppet on a string so he can impress the local 13-16 year old dykes who are congregated outside the local Spar and Benefits office drinking Special Brew and smoking 20 decks of Jin Lings in less time than it takes for them to drop their C&A knickers to the floor in order to get another length and STD off “Dillon” the boy racer.

That sounds more like your talking from experience than speculation. Sounds like you had a good few teenage years.
Trouble is that whether he’s ■■■■ or not, he’s got a point with some drivers. Mind you, I don’t believe tarring all with the same brush is right… except for agency, johnnie foreigner, tesco, rigid drivers, tipper drivers…

I sit in lane 2 but only if I’m making progress. Two miles before my exit I move to lane 1 but frankly I don’t give a toss what car drivers think. I had a women give me a right dirty look for not leaping into the second lane to let her merge at Wetherby.

Lets face it mate, a huge number of car drivers just fall to bits when faced with the complexities of merging - and, im sorry to say, women do seem to be the most hesitant - unable to decide whether to speed up/slow down, and consequently end up matching your speed for the full length of the approach ramp. All in a typical day`s work, eh?

I’m glad this week is over. I’ve been a magnet for stupid drivers this week, traffic last week.

I had one today that came down the slip at a decent rate of knots, got about 50 foot in front of me and gave me the over the shoulder look of “pwease can i come in…”
I’m thinking well, you’re already there just keep going but no, she jumped on the brakes and then carried on trying to come out while at the side of me.
No doubt I was called all the names under the sun when I didn’t brake and let her in but sorry love, nothing I can do for you now, got someone at the side of me…
