Are they all complete and utter ZBs?
Last night one just cut in front of me in the safe gap I had between myself and the truck in front forcing me to slam the brakes on - good job I was lightly loaded :smiling_imp:

I think they are. When they have been on Royal mail long enough to get the hang of being complete idiots they get an automatic transfer to Shell around Tilbury who seem to hold the championship title.

3

Dont even go there mate i get stuck in the Crick to Swindon Post Office wackey races every night .Lost count of how many mirrors i"ve nearly lost from there 4wheelers going round the inside of of me on roundabouts fog lights blazing like James Bond on a mission On Her Majesties Service i suppose :open_mouth:

4

part of the application for being a royal mail driver is this question

“can you drive like ■■■■ dastardly from wacky races?”

but royal mail/parcelforce you have to be an idiot to work for them, ive only done agency and tbh i hate it

5

There hgv and 7.5 ton drivers are amaeturs. Its the ones who drive the transit size vans round london that are the real mentalists. I think you have to have some formula 1 and wrecking ball driver experince before you can apply.

6

Most of the drivers there are from manpower. I was suppose to work with RM through manpower but it never happened. From what iv heard i’m glad it didn’t . Manpower themselves are complete [zbs] so it’s no surprise they are the main support to RM.

7

You mean to drive like this

Yeah well it says it all

8

thats pretty tame for an rm driver

The 7.5 tonners are the worst - especially when the motorway is empty, they’re like arse-ache wasps.

I dunno what they get from it but I know what I’d like to give them…

nick2008 didn’t half cut the nose off you there :open_mouth:

gogzy that’s also some video, i know the riged snipped him but that sort of behaviour is disgraceful.

Ive also been on the end of a RM driver, 7.5 tonner ripped my mirror off at a roundabout in kirkcaldy, didn’t stop either, i got his number but Ive not heard anything about it since :confused: .

11

lol the videos are mental, what makes me laugh is the fact there vans are so battered it is unreal. Have you seen there little trannys? i think they have been in some banger race’s.

Have you also had a look at the comments made by Numptys■■?

for example

“Pair of ■■■■■■ still gives them something to do when not falling asleep, on the phone or murdering prostitutes.
Sun reading halfwits.” <------ Been watching top gear has he?

The ones that fail their LGV tests, usually go on to drive for National Express! :laughing:

Job interview at Royal Mail

Dont get me started on Royal Mail drivers.A couple of weeks ago I was having a night out in Swindon on a small industrial estate near the Honda factory.
Anyway the night drivers thought it would be funny to sound they’re horns at one another every time they came past the lorrys that where parked up. I ask you what sort of tossers are Royal Mail employing ?

15

To be allowed to drive one of there lorrys just do this to your TM

16

I worked for RM over Christmas on agency (not Manpower) and a number of times I was cut up by one of their drivers, one cut me up on a roundabout @ Hangars Lane. Fully loaded with Mail for the US I had to slam all the stops on as not to smack into the back of him. They have the gall to do assessments for agency drivers, they should re assess their own a whole lot more often.

DAF95XF:
Are they all complete and utter ZBs?

When their not on strike, yeah.

But then I suppose their complete and utter ZBs when they are on strike too. :laughing:

18

I think you will find this type of behaviour all stems from years of trying to squeeze things through letter box’s. It seem’s most Royal Mail drivers were postmen before they were trained ( I use that word but others spring to mind ) as drivers.

Hello I am a Royal Mail driver with over 12 years experience on the hgv’s, and I was also a postman before that. As a regular user of this website i feel offended about some of the remarks made on this post! Ok there are some bad drivers amongst us but we do have over 2000 class 1 drivers around the country, and we are not all ■■■■■■ There are plenty of other companies I could name who have bad drivers, cut you up etc. So i take it then that every driver on here has not made a mistake,not drove above the speed limit, and are model lorry drivers. Ok the original poster was right to be racked off, but please don’t tar us all with the same brush!!
