His actions appear to be out of order and indefensible. Posting them on youtube and then looking for support here is a stupid thing to do.
However, playing amateur detective, calling for investigations by various agencies, mentioning Police Officers by name and posting pictures of people you would wish to see investigate an allegation is also stupid and peurile.
There are enough parties with vested interests against our industry, can you imagine these people reading this thread?
I’m not defending him and I’m not saying people shouldn’t feel free to criticise anything, I’m against the way people are doing it.
It’s embarrassing.
+1
like a gang of playground bullies
That’s my thoughts, the bloke has rightly been lambasted for driving like a ■■■■■ but didn’t come back defending his actions, or telling everyone ■■■■■■■■.
Keyboard warriors (oh the irony) changing their tune? Really? I would say that it’s more a case of people being shocked by the bad driving in the videos, who then try to point out the error of the bloke’s ways in order to help him improve his behaviour on the road, for the benefit of everyone.
Or maybe we should just hang everyone who gets it wrong in their eyes ffs…
Im not the sort of person who sticks his fingers up when someone who is more experianced than me and generally whats to help me. Ive noticed certain posters just have it in for me no matter what i say or do, but hay hoy. Ive never said im a perfect driver noone is.
Ive been thinking about the proactive comments on how to improve my driving and at work today ive started to put into action and yes it were a more enjoyable experiance so thank you.
As to explaining my actions and road positions on my videos. I dont think it would not make a diffence as some posters will always call me a twit either way.im not a middle lane hogger either.
I dont drive for the camera…i got it as london drivers tend to like pulling in front of trucks and braking hard. I had one on the m11 by the a406 when i was doing 50 while over taking a much slower car. The camera is there for me/ police/ insurance company to work out whos at fault weather it was my fault or not.
I welcome constructive comments not abuse or name calling like kids.
I’d say you have it in for car drivers!
You sir are a disgrace to the proffession!!
U need re-training or re-educating before you do some real damage!!!

Look mate I’m not going to repeat any advice I myself have posted on here, it’s up to you if you want to look back at it and it’s up to you if you take any notice, to be honest I personally don’t care either way, unless of course I meet you in a potential confrontational situation on the road. As I said I aint Mr Perfect driver, but I would hope that you would have taken notice of the more construtive advice that myself and others have offered, and who knows a life may have been saved by circumstances brought to light on a computer forum.
What I will say is that you have brought all criticism on yourself by recording ■■■■ poor driving displays, but you are no means the only trucker today that displays selfish agressive driving, but if you have genuinely decided to address this then fair play, if you are taking the ■■■■, well thats up to you.

you deserve every bit of abuse you get in fairness and I think the reason why you like the outside lane so much is so you can provoke a car behind to undertake you just like you did in the first video when you where turning into the entrance on the left and then you try to take them out. you done the same in the last video at the roundabout and when saw your opportunity to ram the car you took it with both hands. I didn’t watch any of the other videos but as far as I can see your out to cause damage to any car that gets in your way and I completely agree you should have your licence taken off you before you do any more damage.
This thread has done its job. The poor driving in the videos has been sourced to origin, dissected & opinions given on how the chap should & needs to improve for other people’s safety & his own.
I believe from his comments that he will take the advice offered on board but then maybe I’m naive as I usually hope for the best in people.
Some people genuinely may not believe their driving isn’t up to standard until taken to task, you can see it in the people that regularly tail gate others & then are surprised the person in front gets the hump.
How many people commenting on the silver car incident were one upping the Russian bus driver who deliberately rammed people who cut him up I wonder. I’m not saying that was the case here anyway, maybe he did do it deliberately, no one can be 100% about it.
This evidence will certainly be useful when carrying out Driver Training . . . Speechless.com

Any driver trainers on this site should hijack those vids and use them as an example on how NOT to drive any vehicle never mind a truck ,and will someone please explain why in the name of all that is holy is he always in the outside lane ,i don’t know about anyone else but i feel uncomfortable in the outside lane unless i am in a filter lane or to turn right.
