Well the truckie has a point: since when does traffinc on a motorway give way to those joining via the acceleration lane?
It seems to be commonplace that people expect traffic to give way rather than accelerate to motorway speed and apply judgement in order to join.
I agree, sort of. It’s annoying when people don’t use the slip to get up to speed. But why is it such a big deal to pull out when you approach a slip road to allow drivers on to the road?
He (the truck driver) could see what was going to happen 200 yards back and could have easily pulled out, but thought he’d make a point by riding up close behind the car driver (in very wet conditions) trying to intimidate them.
If all drivers were a bit more courteous and gave other people the benefit of the doubt, then the roads would be a much nicer place to be.
For someone who drives for a living this guy is a really shit, and dangerous driver, acting like that.
