Today A 13 at 14.00 at lodge lane flyover shut down both ways because of a selfish TIPPER driver…causing fxxx mayhem to all of road users… They are the only ■■■■■ that overtake on that useless bit of flyover… (It was put up as a temporary remedy around 1965 ish)I know on this forum I’ve slanted Tipper drivers but their record deserves my condemnation… Who in their right mind would drive in the manner that they do if it was not under the influence of some mind bending drug…or as I believe it’s bonus orientated…Shame on them p
Because the weighbridge closes at 4:30pm.
Because they were on Jeremy Kyle that morning and are behind!
Racing for their next load more like
Or maybe they can flash the cash on a Sunday dinner time…in front of their peers…and say so I brought London to a stop.and wiped out a few cyclists…but my misses gets to ■■■■ through silk draws
They also hut in packs !

I think you meant to say hunt…Showmen who I happen to be good friends with also do the same.You have problem then like a load of dogs they hunt you down…It’s not my way…Always it’s toe to toe…
Who cares? let them, same as BMW, Audi, Merc drivers… on ya go son, catch you at the next roadwork/lights/roundabout/etc
As long as you feel like you’re making progress…
I’m not cut out for this tipper lark, obviously. I work on my own, plod along taking breaks whenever I fancy and I’m hourly paid with no pay related to payload or loads done. I never worry about topping upto the last kg as we sell by the load so it’s 20t written on my ticket regardless of weight.
And whoever said about going toe to toe, my cab has numerous items to deal with that situation should it ever arrive…lump hammer, spanner,screwdriver, tailgate scraper with a nice cerrated edge on it, can of WD40, can of dashboard shine (unused) …
What a load of nonsense there is good and bad in parts of transport. I suppose rog270 you are a perfect driver and quite qualified to judge others. I suspect you passed your test last year and you are still wet behind your ears, when you’ve done a bit you will realise that it may well be fashionable to look down your snivelling nose at tipper drivers but we are in fact at least equal to you.
He’s got it easy, Duck. He just pulls into a yard, opens his curtain and that’s it. A tipper driver will use his reversing skills in virtually every delivery.
Get ol’ rog270 under a blender belt, tell him it drops x ton/minute and tell him to get on with it.

The name says it all doesn’t it T D ? While I agree that there is good and bad in ALL parts of transport, I have to tell you that wether it be in England or in France, Belgium Germany etc., I have always found the so called “tipper driver” to be an absolute A-hole, always chasing the next load/tip. They always seem to be a law to themselves.
Oh by the way, for the record, I do make mistakes, didn’t pass my test last year and I am defenately not wet behind the ears

So the duck says rog270 is a newbie and you reply to it with the answer bit weird that one.
I never had a problem with tipper drivers when I was driving trucks, how they choose to drive is entirely up to them as long as they didn’t bother me!
However since I have retired and now only drive a car they scare the hell outta me. For the last 3 years locally to me a new road has been constructed and countless tippers transporting spoil from the road project have been using the road that I live on to get to wherever they go to tip, I have been tailgated, hassled, flashed and hooted at, had the drivers waving fists at me and other locals just because we have the cheek to use the road that we live on and hold them up!
Sorry guys, hassle me all you want but I have a clean licence and it’s going to stay that way, I will not speed just to get out of your way so you can…
I am sure that some of these guys must have passed a different driving test, or have a different highway code to the one the the rest of us use…
That project was completed a few months ago but now another is just about to start and I guess the same tipper drivers will be back working on that!

Sure you haven’t been taking them mind bending drugs you mentioned in your original post?
