there was no racism in my comment.... its a fact left hand drive trucks are far more dangerous on uk roads! and the same for uk trucks abroad! i see no reason why trucks should have to travel in foreign countries...

I'm sure a lot of british truck drivers, coach drivers etc are on your side..

Oh, i'm a bit simple....can you show me some documented statistics that LHD or RHD vehicles are more dangerous, thanks.
 
Prohibition rate among Czech HGVs subjected to roadworthiness tests in 2007/8 was more than 60%. Polish and Hungarian vehicles exceeded 50% and Belgian, German and Italian vehicles were more than 40%. The UK rate was 37.5%

Oh right, one opinion and its now a fact...well lets see..i drove my RHD landy in denmark for 3 years and found that, as it was RHD, i had a better view of cyclists, especially turning right at junctions, lights etc..is it now a fact that RHD are safer for cyclists??

You have an opinion, its not a fact, same as i do.

It just concerns me because if he was foreign then theres no chance of finding him if he scooted out of the country.

Well foreign or not he defo didn't see me or didnt even look because he has been trucking for years and thinks hes gods gift

I do think LHD motors are more dangerous on RHD roads And visa versa
 
That's what I thought, with it being foreign not being able to catch em. Did anyone get the reg?
