Sit in car. doing 50 mph minding your own business obeying the speed limit threw road works I guarantee you will have a truck meters behind you.
No cutting up, no bad driving just obeying the speed limit and happening to be in the way of 44 tns of truck with a driver out of his face on red bull.


And your telling me no one else sits to close to the back of your car when traveling through road works with speed restrictions when the motorway is heavily congested ??
yeah right !!! Where you live and I know it well as i lived in MK for a number of years the M1 is constantly busy night and day so when there is restrictions in place the traffic bunches up through slow sections .
By the way you have worded your previous post you must be one of the Anti-Lorry Brigade

Good and bad in both caravaners and HGV driver even worse when a bad HGV driver tows a caravan or vice versa

To the original post manners and common sense & patiences helps a lot in driving, none of which I posses however unlike a lot of modern caravaners I can reverse a van and I think all people towing should be able to reverse their unit at least 50 metres or so

As a lorry driver from the north I am surprised you can read and write never mind using the net.
Most people's experience of hgv drivers are of half wits who use there vehicles size to bully other road users.

You sound like a real idiot

I agree.

It's pathetic when you can't have a sensible discussion without people descending to opprobrium.
