why should a lorry driver make a statement like that?(I'm a transport manager and hold an hgv licence)
last night on my way home on a normal road bike.tri-chez transport came so close to knocking me off i felt i had to have a word with the driver.i asked him in future to give a little extra room when overtaking,his reply was"i couldn't there was a car on the other side o me"my response was "well just hold back a few seconds,you'll finish up killing someone"his reply sounded very much like"not my problem you shouldn't be on the road any way"as he rapidly drove off!oh and he was talking on his phone all be it hands free,but was he actually concentrating on the road?
drivers like this should not be on the road as it just causes aggro between two groups of road users that usually have respect for each other.not to mention he is a prime candidate as the next smidsy(sorry mate did not see you)as he runs some one over.
