Yes, I do know--A- pack
Yes it’s funny how when driving a large van, it has that effect on other driversi don't get many problems. when they see a 15 year old van with a few dents and triple airhorns coming at them at 60mph, they usually get out of my way.
Ah, another of my pet hates. Back in the good old days if you had a problem you got on the hard shoulder. With these current 'smart motorways' you are just stuck there in a live lane hoping nothing ploughs/plows (you pick) into you. I wonder how many serious accidents there will be before they realise it's a bad idea.No hard shoulder
We do worry about you, sometimes, sheep, 15 year old and worrying about benders.......When I read that I thought it said 'a 15 year old with a van'
will that allow you to out bully black cab drivers? if so, it's worth every penny.I started my advanced driver training but never completed the course due to illness but RoadCraft is a good book to read and to follow, what I learnt in the the hours of training I still use today, to be honest I really need to get my advance driving certification.
You must be mad. One of the quickest ways to get killed.In the past i have broken down on hard shoulder on M6 north of Brum, it is a truly scary experience, its the fastest wheel change i have ever done, its quite hard to change a wheel when looking at oncoming traffic, yet you feel the next vehicle is going to wipe you out
Racist.......... white people drive cabs as well, usually West Ham supporters.......will that allow you to out bully black cab drivers? if so, it's worth every penny.
I know, cannot help but conclude its OK for breakdown guy to get killed from your reply, eeekkkkYou must be mad. One of the quickest ways to get killed.
Leave the vehicle next time safely, and call for breakdown service, preferably by the emergency phones.
Heavy goods vehicles etc, are magnetically drawn to broken down vehicles on the hard shoulder.

I would agree with that. A few years ago I had a blowout on the M3. Front nearside tyre gave out while I was in the outside lane just as I was about to overtake a car. First, it scared the sh*t out of me, 2nd I didn't realise just how hard it is to stop a Vivaro with only one tyre attached to the wheel and 3rd, I realised just how dangerous it is at the side of a motorway. I had to wait for an ATS guy to come out and put a new tyre on. It was company policy to stop us from changing wheels as we hadn't been trained!Leave the vehicle next time safely, and call for breakdown service, preferably by the emergency phones.
They don't own the car.How do youngsters afford the cars they drive? When I passed my test I had a 10 year old Mini - old type Mini.
there's 2 sides here.If you want to be really worried about the state of driving in the UK you should get a motorbike.
You then realise that these motorists are are actually just murderers who are trying to kill you at every opportunity.
