Hitching A Lift

Cops are as bad as the truck & trailer driver. He must have been blind not to know he had a car hooked up. The cops must have been mad to let him go. Mind you, it would have saved the car driver some fuel if he’d sat back and said nothing.

This is reminiscent of an incident on the A1M near Wetherby a few years ago when a female vet joined the motorway via a slip road and didn’t notice a tanker to her right in lane one.Her car flipped round and was pushed down the road sideways for some distance because the tanker driver(Arclid,Middlewich?)wasn’t aware of her presence.I believe no one was prosecuted,not even the car driver whose failure to observe or hear a lorry alongside her was remarkable.

That one was understandable from the lorry drivers point of view, but this git in the states must have not looked in his mirror for bloody ages.
