Having driven HGVs for a while I know the pressures they're under to meet schedules etc, but you haven't really explained why the driver in question behaved as he did. Personally, I think it was just for his own boredom-relieving amusement.
Even if Dollie had instantly vanished from the road he would have still been left with the same situation except that in place of dear Dollie there would have been another 56mph HGV.
What should our bully do now ? If he tries to overtake, the two HGVs will be side by side for miles. Surely he won't be stupid enough to tailgate and blast one of his own kind ? No, he will probably behave professionally and safely keep his distance.
If, as Chris (Buenchico) says, dear old Dollie(no offence, I'm 73 !) is in the crawler lane then I can perhaps understand his action, but it's all about courtesy and consideration replacing aggression and disaster. With you all the way, Dollie.
sorry derekpara I nor anyone else can answer the actions of that hgv driver all I can say is that no matter where you are, what you do you always get a moron to spoil things.
I've had hgv drivers overtake me in the third lane of a motorway swtch on his interior light then give me a rude gesture as I was in the middle lane overtaking a slower moving hgv in the first lane.
sorry to say the hgv driver in the third lane was on irish plates not avery good advert for his company neither
Are you totally thick and ignorant gef??? You obviously do not have a clue about these things, I'm most certainly not talking nonsense, even if she is doing 50 MPH, there is still a problem, and it's not laziness! Big vehicles like trucks and buses are nothing like driving a car, they dont have the same acceleration as a car, they have slower responses, so when you are on a busy motorway and come across someone doing about 50-55 MPH when driving a truck which remember is limited to 56 MPH, sure you can overtake, but it will take a long time to do it as well as holding everything behind you up. I'm sorry but your attitude is completely ignorant and selfish, and people like you really, really annoy me!
