seeing the other's view
In article .com,
allan tracy says... Large HGVs are designed for motorways not the urban environment where they can be routinely seen to mount pavements and generally fail to fit into the road space provided. Only because ****s in cars park inconsiderately (BIG CLUE: LOADING BAYS AREN'T FOR CARS) and car driving morons working in poxy back streets order stuff to be delivered on a vehicle that won't fit. The RHA is for ever bleating on about 95% of goods being moved by road but then their competitors would never be allowed to get away with the **** HGVs do so it's hardly surprising is it. Like the illegal hours train drivers were being forced to work to the point they were thinking about striking? Like the latest scare about airline pilots falling asleep at the controls or pulling the flaps lever instead of the landing gear lever? At every level the aviation and rail industry surpasses the HGV industry on safety reliability and general adherence to the rules and a fat lot of good it does them too, when they're undercut on price by a bunch of cowboys working ninety hours a week on overloaded badly maintained lorries. VOSA disagrees with you. -- Conor Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak......... |
