I wonder what other instances of bad HGV Driving the Police saw whilst this three day campaign was on.
Probably saw someone doing 51 mph in a 50 limit.
Had there been a vehicle broken down, which there was five miles further down
3 days and they saw a guy eating a yoghurt… with a spoon, how did they expect him to eat it… with a fork 
In the article it mentions someone being spotted eating with 2 hands which is wrong so is it then ok to eat one handed whilst your other hand is on the steering wheel ?
Outrageous behaviour. I vote they should be hung, drawn quartered, and then forced to do four weeks hard drivers cpc courses!
Surprisingly I can manage to eat a sarnie whilst driving without causing three hundred miles of chaos…
I can also clean my hands with a wet wipe… Eat an apple… The list is endless!
Shame on me

An apple or a Sarnie is reasonable. Eating a yoghurt whilst at the wheel of any vehicle let alone a truck full of hazardous chemicals is mind blowingly stupid.
And the fact that some of you on here find it funny probably explains why the hard shoulder of a motorway is such a dangerous place.
If the lowest common denominator believes ths to be accepable then don’t be surprised when the police use tricks to catch you.
The fact is that by preventing one truck from saving a major accident pays for the years wages, hire and fuel for the truck.
But then I forgot on here it’s never the truck drivers fault.
Probably going to get flamed for this but…say you’re on the mway eating an apple and it goes down the wrong way, you start choking and all at once a 44 tonner is out of control, unlikely…maybe, impossible…no

Cough it up and wipe your mouth with a wet wipe

Your rite, drivers have had there snap at the wheel for yrs…why change somat thats part of the job ? but some plank wants your money ! and this plank is paid to sit down and think of the most petty excuses to get your hard earned out of your greasy mit dripping with brown sauce from ya bacon butty…havnt you noticed if you are breaking the rules and regs it will be ok as long as you pay up…because money is the end result of you or i doing something as simple as eating a sandwich with one hand renders you into an idiot no better than a chimp , so put your fines money to one side so next time you want a drink on a 4.5 hour stint it will be ok, or wait to pull up for your break for a drink and a sandwich…like all law abiding drivers do ! 
pc barry gardener could do with borrowing some of thoses wet wipes, scruffiest copper ive ever seen
A lot of money was spent to find someone eating a yoghurt, and wet wiping their hands , why didnt they stop at a snack wagon and save a fortune.
Bloody ridiculous. But at least we know our taxes are being well spent, eating a yogurt and wiping your hands with wet wipes has certainly justified buying 60k’s worth of motor.
Didn’t that unit stop a drunk driver a few months ago , I would say that it earned it’s worth already . If it was catching car drivers you lot would be applauding them
That P.C. should smarten up his appearance,I.M.O.he could pass for a tipper driver.

You should look at the other thread, apparently it ok to drink a skinfull at night and drive the next morning.

Wet wipes? Christ almighty. What next…
“police capture hgv driver sneezing”
PC scruffy Gardiner said in a statement, “the driver shut his eyes briefly and held a tissue over his nose. If a car was overtaking him at the time, it could have resulted in death”
For gods sake THINK OF THE CHILDREN !!

Sounds like a treatment for thrush

It is impossible to sneeze without closing your eyes…so you presumably aren’t allowed to sneeze when driving then…
