Most HGV drivers really annoy me as they have no or very little consideration for other road users. This car driver called the police 6 times and had to wait 3 hours for a response. M1 lorry shunts: Police failed to attend call for three hours - BBC News

Hi, A Lorry started reversing down our road when it realized it was closed half way down. Despite my wife beeping horn it didn't hear or see her and reversed into her car causing crack to the bumper. The guy admitted fault and she's said to him that she would happily avoid insurance if...

On way home tonight, driving along on M25, minding my own business, then wham. HGV hits my rear Right. Happened so quickly, he was changing lanes. Traffic was quite heavy, only doing about 30mph. But the shunt was quite hard. Damage to bumper, lights cracked etc. He comes out his cab and...

I was on the way home from work today behind a big lorry with a tall trailor & it had rubbish piled up above the trailor. A large piece of wood came flying out & hit my merc, scratching/scuffing my front bumper, smashing the bumper grill & the plastic trim infront of the grill. i got the time...

One of the things I find most frustrating is HGV drivers who pull out in front of you - or even into the space you are occupying, forcing you to swerve into the next lane. Often, with no indication whatsoever. I know they need to keep up momentum, but this should never take precedence over...

Talking to an old neighbour yesterday who mentioned over the course of the last month or so has never seen so many broken down MBs on the hard shoulder for as long as he can remember. Is this true? Not one too lie either as he loves my S211.

I have searched through the forum and found posts for mirror / cover replacements, but none for the complete wing mirror. The other day a lorry took out my wing mirror, due to one way road I could not get back in time to get his details and now need to pay or claim on my insurance. Went to...

At around 8 ish this morning, I turned at the end of our road to be met by one of Dudley Council's finest bin lorries. Being driven by a guy with a mug of something in his hand. While he seemed to be managing ok with one hand occupied with a cuppa, I couldn't help but think what a f*&%ing...

I too have to rant about something which is driving me mad. The Highways Agency has set up a test area of 2 miles on the A14, close to the M1/M6 interchange, where lorries are not allowed to overtake. I use this road about twice a week in both directions and I am yet to find a day when lorry...

Dear members, Recently the engine light on my clk 200 k came up and I took it yo the Dealership and they could not find a fault despite me telling them that the engine was rough and sluggish. Now the engine sounds like a diesel lorry and I am not exaggerating. I think it could be the...

Travelling home one night last week I approached a gritter ahead, we were coming to a roundabout and he had his right indicator on, so I held back, he did a U turn at the roundabout. As he did I heard a loud thud, a bit of grit hit my headlight or glass I thought. The following morning I...
