Kind of glad you’re sat at home rather than being in a truck given your childish attitude.

If I remember the play ground rules correctly it’s children who tell tales not grown men claiming to be the finest truck drivers on the road, go figure…

Agency have stopped ringing me & my part time job has dried up.
Go figure…

At least he had the decency to put his hand up to say sorry.Do you know what? That actually does make the world of difference, we all screw up now and again, we all go somewhere for the first time where because of rubbish signeage local knowledge is necessary. A quick apologetic wave helps defuse the situation.
Much better than when some plant life screws up and then gives YOU a gob full as though it’s your fault!
I put it down to ■■■■■ envy tbh.
Indeed. I did give him a thumbs up in return.

I phoned the company and reported him. They weren’t interested. Typically I didn’t put my dash cam in today so I could share this horrific skill.Grass:evil:
Grass maybe. Do I want to meet him coming other way one day and kill me, no
Grassing up other drivers isn’t going to help, you can’t decide on what’s coming the other way, when your time is up it’s up #fact!
you cant help some knuckle draggers midlifetrucker but then if by

Well known Lincolnshire company today coming back from Beet Factory tries to overtake me even though he wasn’t fast enough. I eased off as we approached A47 A17 roundabout so the clown didn’t kill us both. He then nearly wiped me out, undertook another Lorry, then got all his trailer wheels at least a foot over the kerbside. Caused a car to brake then took the A17 exit swerved across both lanes. Got within about a foot of a popemobil bumper and harangued them for about a mile. He then overtook and caused oncoming traffic to slow down. Best of all about 2 miles later he pulled into a Layby. Incredible.I phoned the company and reported him. They weren’t interested. Typically I didn’t put my dash cam in today so I could share this horrific skill.
Was tempted to pull into Layby and discuss it but decided if he was driving like that his knuckles probably scrape on the ground
Someone phoned in about me on Thursday but never actually said what I’d done, this was near Newark apparently, only thing I can think is the muppet who was doing 40mph all the way down the A17 (fair play) who then decided to do 56 (being a ■■■■■ at Beckingham bypass didn’t like it when I used the cross hatching to get by him. Oh well.
Some total bell ends on the road, we all have the occasional stint we’re not proud of (unless you’re in the Halo brigade) but that just seems mental & for no reason too as he lay by’d it. Praps his tacho was on 4:29?
‘pimpdaddy’…‘Biggest toole of the trade’
Need say no more!!
Newlad. Not that Lincolnshire company. It’s was a bulker
Oh I know just seemed weird it was same day, the bloke who complained about me didn’t even say what I’d done wrong just the he “didn’t like my driving”.
cravens ?

Why would some one tell you about that?
Surely the management have better things to do than listen to members of the public who have nothing better to do.

Had a run in with a driver from Tooles Transport yesterday who I can only describe as Ned Flanders English counterpart. He decides you don’t have to give way to the right on roundabouts after nearly taking the front of my unit with him. As I pull alongside at some lights his windows is down and he starts shouting at me. What a confused man.
Tooles Transport-sorry to upset anybody but some of the worst drivers anywhere and i speak with experience of driving in North Africa although not in a LGV. If you see one of their drivers best thing to do is park up for half an hour!

Tooles by name…
Had a run in with a Tooles driver on the A2 a while back on two lane section. He came down on slip at a fair pace and was indicating to join the main carriageway alongside me. I couldn’t move across as the road was very busy but from his wild waving out of the window I assumed I had to brake and let him in front of me. I did phone the company but as I didn’t see the registration number they couldn’t identify the driver as they ‘had a lot of trucks on the A2’ on that particular day. As you are from the Droitwich area I guess you did mate!

Its not really a fact though is it? The “fact” is that only a % of the population believe in fate. So its not a fact that when your time is up its up.
