They seem to be offences commited on a regular basis on the A75 by a lot of drivers, including the tailgating and dodgy overtaking manouvers, whats all the fuss about.
Offences which probably wouldn’t be commited, if the speed limit wasnt so low on that road.
Sorry but how can you blame it on the speed limit? The speed limit is there for a good reason. It’s all about drivers not driving properly.
High speed low speed these clowns will never learn.
Seen worse on that road in the 90s before limiters were invented, and it wouldn’t be 1 overtaking you on a blind bend/summit, it would be 8 to 10 at a time either racing to or from the ferry.
Another road that needs the limit raising, as its a lot safer now.
he is a man who historically has put money before road safety
Sounds like that moron on here a while back who was complaining that traffic doing the speed limit on the A66 was stopping him from getting 2 runs a day in.
Plenty of examples of that kind of driving on the A66 and A75 usually with Scottish and Irish lorries and the more bling the worse they are. She’d probably ban over half the drivers doing that run.

That’s not an excuse. You know what the speed limit is before you get there. Those doing that run know how long it takes. If they’re driving like that its because they haven’t allowed enough time for the journey or are trying to get an extra run in.

No excuse for what the second prat did, but why didn’t the git in the tractor pull into the layby for a few seconds !
If you’re making no excuse then why even mention the tractor driver
For all we know the tractor driver might have only just came out a lay by and mr warburtons had only been behind him for a few minutes. Or maybe the tractor driver was taking the next turn 100 metres ahead. You just don’t know so can’t bring him into it. What you do know is a warburtons artic driver tried to undertake using a lay by, which is insane.
