Just to add to the list,why do a lot of drivers hate supermarket drivers?Apart the obvious of a lot of them never pulling over to let faster traffic past?

Why should they
I don’t hate them, they travel at the same speed as me so I wont get the flashing headlight treatment from them.
We’re all lorry drivers at the end of the day, we just have different loads/load carrying devices behind us.
I don’t hate Supermarket drivers, come to think of it I don’t hate anyone, only people’s behavior may sometimes anger me.
I love being me a supermarket driver nice and stress free I even knock it of cruise when someone is struggling to pass.
Hated them when I was on general though lol
‘‘jf1970 apart from the obvious?’’ you talking about going slow? You guys are zooming about like nobodys business in those new Volvos

Wouldnt say I ‘loved’ my time at Asda crappy any 5 from 7 day rota and stupid start times were two of the things that made me go back on Mon-Fri general
I’ve never been a trolley dolly, but I guess if you’ve worked under pressure for years in general transport, being a trolley dolly is the next best thing to retirement, so why rush? And yes I have been ■■■■■■ off by them in the past driving at 40mph where they could be going a bit quicker.
Hatred towards supermarket drivers can only come from the fact they are usually on more money than most of us, for an easier stress free job.
Hats off to them.
If you get behind them on s/c’s tailgating and flashing your lights etc. just because they are driving legally, then your a ■■■■■ Period. They are usually having their speeds monitoried, they are hardly going to risk the cushy gig they have just to satisfy the morons wanting to tear arse about for £7.50 (or less) an hour behind them.

If there was a smiley for round of applause the above post would get one here.
For £14 an hour, overtime at time and a half, and in my own bed every day i’ll take all the crap and abuse any of you want direct in my direction. After 41 years on the benders i have every consideration for my fellow professional drivers.
Never considered it.
