Half the idiots on our roads can’t drive 1 vehicle without crashing, 14 truck pile up - sorry, I mean 14 juggernaut …

Do you need a special licence to drive a Juggernaut? :grimacing:

It’s all about the headlines mate.

Truck drivers want more money, they might as well be driving a Micra.

Truck driver does something wrong, takes a wrong turn or is involved in an accident and you’d think they were driving a small planet around

“Backers of the proposal say the system would allow drivers to use their laptop, read a book or ‘sit back and enjoy a relaxed lunch’”

No thanks!

I can’t see this happening in reality

I don’t see what there on about at junctions with people struggling to join, I only move or adjust my speed for another lorry, cars always hang you out to dry in lane 2 so they can go swivel as far as I’m concerned, so this would make no difference.

My boss is a prick so I know I won’t be giving it a go, I want to though.

I don’t think most driver’s know the highway code any vehicle joining a motorway should give way to the traffic already on the motorway not the other way round
