I saw 2 waberers with Romanian plates on the M25 this morning, seems evening the Hungarians are looking at cutting costs!
I drive a UK registered truck (LHD) and pull a Dutch trailer … and we are cutting costs !
And i dont have a UK number plate swinging in the wind on bungee cords on the back of the trailer !
Why do drivers still do that ?

Correct HD … !! but you cant tell them,they always have the same stock answers …
" VOSA will Nick you "
" You say that but the French will Nick you "
Boring bored BS !!
Agreed mate. I gave up talking to professional liars and fantasists who hold vocational licences years ago. I leave them to impress each other with their knowledge and wisdom. No point telling people like that anything, they know it all anyway!
It’s good to be able to repeat them on here though!

Yes I have seen quite lots of Romanian, Bulgarian and Bosinian truck with right hand drive doing UK, ferry trailers and International work! in fact I am quite surprise that Bosinian is not EU member yet how come they can get away with it?
I don’t get it. If you are not EU member, you are not allowed to do international work?
Yes sorry did not explain as clear, I mean Bosinian is not an EU member and should be not allow to work in UK domestic work not Bosnia to Germany to Bosnia or to UK and back as international work. I have not seen any Turkish or Iranian trucks doing UK or Germany Domestic work yet. I reckons that ministery of transport turn to blind eyes! that Bosnians trucks doing UK work for long time period since from last 2004 I have seen it

There are English trucks and drivers registered on Dutch, German, French Plates, so its no problem for the East Europeans to do the same. Not is it only about cabbotage, but also to save the registration and Road fund and O licence costs here in the uk, plus vosa will not take their O licence, or driving licence for misdemeanors ( they cant be bothered) and the biggest reason is because they can…they are part of the EU.
We all know that this country is in deep [zb], the haulage industry is in deep [zb], what with the cost of overheads etc, Vosa dont give a [zb], the government dont give a [zb], but we are all in it together…and the more foreigners in our industry…the better…cos they get on with it…Thats why Romanian (zb) are camping, and begging in the poshest parts of london, and our own born and bred citizens are told to move north if they want a council house, foreigners are favoured more, we give billions in aid, to countries who dont need it, and we are skint, we prop up a useless currency, which we dont want, but were skint, The water, gas, electric, and transport are foreign owned, a large majority of companies in the uk, are foreign owned, so they have almost got us where they need us, to collapse this country at will, where they couldnt do it in 2 world wars, we cannot deport those who wish to blow us to kingdom come, we cannot insult our foreign friends, but they can do it to us, this county has been lost, and we have no one to fight for us or its survival, its each to their own when the time comes, when the revolution starts will you be there ■■ i sure as hell will be…for this is MY country…but slowly and surely…i am losing it, but not without a fight…a starting point is to lobby our great government for a referendum on quitting the EU, and/or losing the human rights act which favours terrorists over our own citizens.
on any day near the transmarck in calais wabberners will have 25 plus waiting for reloads at the weeknd you can add another 50 to that,same with hsf in the other secure park 25 plus trucks waiting for reloads hsf all double manned and all on poor wages so it doesnt matter to the companys how long they sit there,then into uk they come and work in the uk then back to calais,two wabberners the other day at the train with doors open being checked by security trailers mt this cant be right.
there wages i beleive are around a grand a month so a couple of loads in the uk will soon cover the costs of them sitting about for days on end.
its not just the uk that suffers its same all over europe in spain they will not load for home anywhere but home and reading a french truck magazine the other day the french truck drivers union is starting to get involved,holland is also having the odd protest portugal before xmas had the motorway shut for a afternoon by trucks protesting about this problem hauliers all over europe are staring to get fed up with the ever increasing problem.
instance uk haulier had loads to spain £1.600 not great i know loses the job to a eastern european company they do it for £800 double manned job done in two day no one can compete with that.

And i dont have a UK number plate swinging in the wind on bungee cords on the back of the trailer !
Why do drivers still do that ?
So the rozzers can check you on anpr without pulling in front of you and doing it from the front & also so that the gestapo don’t get excited when you drive past and they think you’re foreign.

Bang on there mate. Good post
There are some posts worth reading on here and this is one of the best I have read. It says it all really, it’s a shame we are run by business and the banks now
Last week, ex Argos DAF(more miles on the clock than the starship “Enterprise”) on Rumo plates having a struggle to get up Wrotham hill on the M20, where was it going what was it doing? are these guys camping out in Ramsgate as rumoured? why are’nt VOSA looking into this or is it to much trouble and they prefer the "soft " targets?
