Not into facebook so not sure how things work, but rather than grass the guy up, which I have never been a fan of (although in this case there is probably a good argument for it due to his ■■■■ poor driving style) could someone not give him the heads up about the comments on here from his fellow drivers, for him to ponder on, or maybe that has been done already has it?
Nor me Rob,but this twonk really will cause a serious smash one day and needs stopping.

He was a member on here, until he was called out for being an unsafe drama queen…
I’m sure Jay is aware of this thread and laps it up in fact it gives his vid views a boost.
After last time when he and his followers where left in tears it’s unlikely he will appear again.
Without wanting to turn this into a witch hunt his habit of creating accidents is a concern, not only for other road users but also as he is giving a ■■■■ poor image of our profession. We all have moments of stupidity but to deliberately hit another road user is pushing things a bit even if our pet hate is brake testers.
On this occasion Jay provoked a driver into the situation by demonstrating a serious lak of road craft creating an incident out of a non event.
Just had a quick scan of the comments on some of his vids and it is basically people blowing smoke up his arse. I’m assuming they all share the same (low) level of intelligence.

I’ve just posted on the company’s facebook page, but it just seemed to disappear when I hit enter,and now I can’t find it. Anyone know what’s gone wrong ?
They get reviewed by the person maintaining their Facebook page so someone at that company is definitely seeing them. Just sent one in myself.
On the assumption that Jay’s firm “has a word” and Jay accepts that his driving is below the standard of professional driving, what would people like to see from him? I’m not really concerned about what happens between Jay and his firm, I’m more concerned about those that he’s setting an example to. So with that in mind, and rather him just going quiet, I’d like to see a post/video from him addressing the general thoughts of the members here…

What about you lot?
Correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t he admit to being a bit aggressive behind the wheel the last time he starred on this board, nothing has changed since then and personally I’m sceptical that anything will change now.
I’d imagine that if he does get a telling off or even got let go from the company you wouldn’t hear anything and his channel would just go deathly quiet or even just be taken down.
Wouldn’t surprise me if the company he works for tel him to stop the videos while he’s an employee due to it damaging their reputation or something along those lines.
Ideal scenario? He wakes the [zb] up and openly admits he’s been acting and driving like a complete ■■■■ these last few years, and then devotes all his attention to driving professionally and conscientiously instead of worrying about his internet fame (hah) and YouTube views and drama content.
Then maybe he’d post videos that were actually a true representation of what is expected of a professional driver and teach his Euro Truck Sim playing fan base and possibly the future generation of irl truck drivers something safe, constructive and worthwhile.
It won’t happen though, he’s so far up his own arse he chokes when he takes a dump!
