    it not that they should be band but they should show a bit more respect for other road users !!!!! its when they just pull out and sit in the lane and then just end up pulling back in the space they came out of !!!!!!!!! i see this a lot as i travel up and down the moterway most of the times i under stand that they need 2 over take othe road users !!!!!
    New sig coming soon

    Craig, I agree wholeheartedly with following a philosophy of live and let live, I don't tend to get wound up while I'm driving. I do honestly think that truck drivers do a great deal of things which are dangerous and frustrating to other road users, but then again...don't we all?

    Both lanes are the same speed restriction, but, for me, as annoying as it is, we all have the same rights to be on the road, assuming everyone has paid their tax and insurance
    I think, that maybe a bit more understanding is required :)

    has anybody who has responded on here have a HGV??

    for the sake of being held up for 10 seconds of your life?

    i run a transport company, have done for over 20 years now, if anybody on here wants a run a fully loaded 44 ton truck, c'mon, i will show you what it is about & all the laws that go with it, yeah there are a few bad ones, but anybody with a bit of experince should be able to tell what a HGV is going to do long before they do it

    pointless thread

    Taking into account my erroneous vote (voted the wrong way), this looks to be split 50/50.
