    Just for the record, I for one have nothing but admiration for you and your kind who put themselves at peril and fulfill a role I myself am not capable of. Bear in mind that those that would support and praise you and your colleagues are the least likely to come into contact with you in order to do so.

    Is that like front fog lights which you clueless clowns seem to think are driving lights?

    Sadly you morons need all the clues you can get which is why we use them.

    They obviously dont have any clue about the lights do they and theyre blind

    You'd think that wouldn't you but every time some moron in a car has cut me up, that's exactly what they've said.

    And when I'm reversing, apparently hazard warning lights, a big loud reversing beeper saying "Warning, this vehicle is reversing" and being a 8ft wide, 14ft high 53ft long object isn't enough it would appear judging by the amount of people who drive around me to the point of going up pavements and into factory entrances...

    I have to agree with you there. Buses in certain areas have to have lights on all the time just incase "pedestrians and other road users can't see them".
    If another road user can't see a bloody double decker bus then they should not be driving/riding or walking without a seeing guide!

    I only use fog lights when it is foggy or BAD visibility,

    Fog lights should only be used in FOG, not 'bad visibilty' when faced with bad visibility most people simply turn on the headlights so the visibility is improved, ie at night :rolleyes2 :rolleyes2 :rolleyes2 :rolleyes2 :rolleyes2 :rolleyes2 :rolleyes2

    Read the HC, the following are LAW!

    201: You MUST use headlights when visibility is seriously reduced, generally when you cannot see for more than 100 metres (328 feet). You may also use front or rear fog lights but you MUST switch them off when visibility improves (see Rule 211).

    211: You MUST NOT use front or rear fog lights unless visibility is seriously reduced (see Rule 201) as they dazzle other road users and can obscure your brake lights. You MUST switch them off when visibility improves.

    Shove it up your !!!!, dumbass. I don't use my size to intimidate. I spend most of the time driving every day having to make allowances for you morons.

    Here we go again with the insults, can't you string together a sentence without?

    I see it day in day out, HGV " I am bigger than you move over"


    Every new HGV driver always makes the same comments..."I didn't think doing that when I drove my car was dangerous until I started driving a lorry".

    So make allowances for what you perceive is wrong, even though in most cases it is the HGV driver breaking the law.

    1.8 million miles points and accident free, muppet. If I stopped driving today and you kept on driving until you're 180 without having a single accident or getting a single point, you'd nearly have managed the same as I have in the last 15 years.

    Typical arrogant " I don't do any wrong", the point is how many have you caused or nearly caused where the car driver has took evasive action to avoid your crass driving?

    Somehow I doubt it...

    Tell you what, we'll all park up. And in a week when you've emptied all the shops and have run out of fuel, we'll sit there laughing at you. EVERYTHING APART FROM THE AIR YOU BREATHE RELIES ON LORRIES.

    Here we go again," we can't live without lorries", we did before they came on the scene, and could/would if they went off the scene! Just obey the law like you want others to and you won't have the problems that you yourself create.

    Remember, we hold all the cards and even the Govt admitted that when the threat of the last fuel strike was made...

    And that is all it was, a threat, because you lost the previous one :rotfl::rotfl:
