Eddie stobart driver tail gating me!
« on: 26 November 2011, 11:35 »
Here's an email I sent to Eddie stobart website:

Hi

I would like to write to you regarding dangerous driving from one of your drivers.

The incident happened approximately 10.35am between junction 22 to 21 anticlockwise on the m25.

This particular stretch of motorway has a 50mph speed restriction and my wife, my 2 month old son and my brother in law were in the car cruising at the prescribed 50mph speed limit. Looking in my rear view mirror I saw your driver coming up behind me at speed and once he caught up with me tail gated me for some considerable time. 

Fearing for my family's safety I moved over to let him through and subsequently witnessed your driver bully other motorists out of the way by tail gating them and using his horn on several occasions. 

The truck in question was named annabel Paige (h4451) and the registration is px10 ddy

Kind regards

Well done Sir.

Fed up of dangerous lorry drivers around here...

Especially seeing as I live 2 mins from the Channel Tunnel and 10 mins from Dover Harbour, they all race to get off and onto the M20.

So flipping annoying. Why do they feel the need to race off the line etc and cut you up to get on, when all you're going to do is overtake them on the motorway anyway.  :huh:

Some douche the otherday, the Snodland/Cuxton/Rochester roundabout on the M20, I'm in the left lane ready to get onto the M20 London bound behind another lorry, he's in the far right lane and without indicating just cut in. I couldn't understand it as it's a tight turning and he just made his turning even harder! Lorry in front of me went then he just cut behind. Tosser.

Where all my moneys went.

Maybe he didnt see you in your tiny little Micra, and just expected you to be a 90 year old woman driving at 12 mph anyway.  :grin:

Sounds like a tw@t and pretty stupid considering their trucks are well labelled and named. Good on you for letting them know about him.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.
