    Seriously, are you and TrickyWicky reading a different post from me?

    The OP clearly says the lorry was trying to exit at an exit earlier than they were in a lane for.

    If the OP had been squashed between the roundabout and the lorry then I would agree with you as the trailer takes a tighter line. I might also agree if it was the back of the lorry and they'd been caught out by the tail swing but the OP clearly states they were on the outside of the lorry and the driver tried to take an exit that they were not in a lane for.

    That's nothing to do with space, that's "oh god I've missed my exit" CRUNCH and 100% the lorry drivers fault. If he'd missed it, he should have gone round again, simple.

    Thank you and god bless you :)
    Thank god....someone who can understand the english language...I didn't realise i had to give all the details....why do people have to twist things and belittle....Bullies!!!

    I did read the question, and answered it as you required, but haven't had any recognition. :( You only seem to be responding to people who didn't help you.:(

    sorry hun, i did actually thank everyone who did help....but collectively...I said god bless everyone who has been helpful. I just got wound up by all the details that were asked and assumptiuons that were made :(

    You were actually the only person to give an email and i got a standard response and was told someone would be in touch

    Thanks hun :)

    But if you don't give ALL the details, you wont get the correct help.

    How could it be otherwise.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    I only asked if someone could provide an email for contact....the only one i could find was for customer services....and this isn't a shopping complaint....i didn't ask for any other help.

    Or perhaps less detail?

    Something along the lines of........

    'does anyone have an email address of Tesco to complain about the bad driving of one of their HGV drivers?'

    Sigh...i'll let you have the last word so that this can all end....pat yourself on the back

    Again thank you to all those that wanted to help...and did help.
    I have now received another response from the CEO and it looks like the whole thing is being taken seriously and being investigated

    Have a good night all :)

    Oh come on.

    Tesco will not sack him for having an accident, they would surely face a wrongful dismissal charge.

    I would be very surprised if anything comes of this.
