What is really annoying is when you are driving down the road in a commercial vehicle and you hear a long blast of a cars horn and you instantly slow down and check your rear view mirrors and wonder if something has happened behind you or if there is a problem and now I know.
It is you idiots blowing your horns because someone is on the phone.
Two wrongs do not make a right. IDIOTS!!!0 -

my company gets calls all the time from folk like you, my boss doesn't actually care what you have to say about our driving or what we do while we drive,so he acts as if he cares,tells you something will be done about,then he tells everyone else and we all have right good laugh at how many sad pathetic folk out there think they are the police.
next time you call a company why don't you offer your number to the other driver so you can personally tell them what you think?
sad,sad,sad. :rotfl:
You know what is sad? people like you who are so stuck up their own a**e that they don't care about anyone else. Your attitude stinks and why you think it is funny for you and your boss to sit round listening to complaints about you says it all really!!
As for the latter sentence funnily enough i told my friend about it as was on my way to meet her, turns out it was someone she knews husband, he had got a good telling off for it apparantly and it wasnt the first time..he would be sacked after the next call..sad really that he obviously doesnt value his job eah!!..or maybe his missus was lying and they had a good old laugh? I know this to be true so some companys do take notice of thier staff.0 -

I've never called a company about the terrible driving of one of their employees, but when companies put adverts on their vans and then their drivers act like !!!!! on the road, is it any wonder people ring up with complaints?
Thanks for this exactly my point really..selfish people!0 -

Doesn't have to be kids, replace them with any vulnerable member of society or a dog or kitten or something. The point was, your boss wont like the bad publicity and it doesn't make great business sense to encourage bad driving in his employees.
The one i reported was a company with the name on the vehicle..i got the number plate too so there was no arguing over whether it was someones van or not..when i rung i told them the time, rd and reg and they just said 'ahh yes we have had this before with that particular driver' grr..so many people wanting/needing jobs and so many muppets out there thinking they are invincable to rubbish driving.0 -
