Am I a magnet for trouble and problems or something.
Coming back from Birmingham today with 24 tonnes of Paper reels on end, I was on route from Lincoln to Louth and had this Artic seemingly desperate to overtake me. I was sitting at 40mph, the speed limit, and he kept dodging out to see if he could pass me.
I know, I could have slowed down to let him past me, but that would have entailed me making things worse for the cars that were in the queue.
Eventually, he managed to overtake me, gave me a dirty look as he went past and sped off into the distance, until I caught up with him at the traffic lights in Wragby, got him a fair way then?
So, if you were driving a white Foden, pulling a white fridge trailer belonging to ACC Distribution reg FN03 BPV, thanks for showing such professionalism in your driving ability and showing all the car drivers how idiotic you are. Is it any wonder no one will back us up about the 40mph silly limits?
Also, when going through Wragby, you turned off towards Louth, I would like to tell you of a near miss I had there at 25mph, you were doing 30mph and accelerating, about 200 yards after you turn off to Louth, watch out for one of the houses on the left hand side, I had a 3 or 4 year old kid come zooming out of his drive on a little bicycle, onto the road in front of me, I had to do an emergency stop to avoid hitting the little sod, you wouldn’t have had the chance at your speed.
