Thinking process goes like this

Lorry Driver Behind - "OOOoo look im gaining on the lorry infront" *in his slipstream*
Lorry Driver Behind "Im gunna whack my indicator on and pull into the middle lane which is moving at 80mph and overtake up this rather large hill"
Lorry Driver infront sees him pull out
Lorry Driver infront "I dont think so mate, im putting my foot through the carpet"
They sit side by side for a while till the fornt one gives in and flashes him in (normally blinding everyother motorist on the motorway) 1cm infront of his bumper.

Then the same happens all again when the one behind now gets in a slipstream.

clearly you've never been in the cab of a lorry/truck in such circumstance? I was working for 3663 and Britvic between study at uni and i understand how frustrating it can be in the cab! starting work at 0530 to deliver good/drink to cafes, resturants, gyms and offices stuck at a limited 53mph. now THAT is frustrating so when travelling that slow the last thing you want to do is sit behind someone slower - yes its annoying but dont knock it till you tried it!

i nominate those damn mobilty scooters that are driven on the road by the elderly. with a flow of oncoming traffic it can take areal age to get past!

To be honest, if driving a lorry is that bad then the people who drive them should have tried harder at school and got a proper job.

If you go to Germany or France or any other country with 2 laned motorways, lorrys simply can't overtake other lorrys so fuck them. They are annoying cunts over here.

Lorrys are not limited at 53 mph, dont know which ones you were driving!

Think its 56mph or 57, my best mates dad drives them all day every day!

Just about to say that

I think it depends how you class bad drivers - i would say Britain has the most impatient and abuse drivers in Europe

Everyone appears to drive everywhere with no time to spare
