..........pull in directly if front of a lorry while leaving a motorway or dual carriageway???
sorry for the odd question, but i am a lorry driver and am intrigued as to why car drivers do this, i can be running at a total weight 44t and obviously it will not stop in as some people must think it will. Cars pulling in directly in front of me and braking hard is something i have to deal with quite a few times a day and for the life of me i cant understand it, i have seen the aftermath of a car getting rear ended by an HGV and trust me, its a scary site. Alot of the time this happens i have absolutely nothing behind me but coming past the last exit marker cars start diving into gaps like kamikaze pilots that arent there, i leave a large gap between me and the vehicle in front but the space just gets swallowed up by cars whose driver have a death wish i think.
i just wanted to ask if anyone does it and if so why??? its not like they are gaining much time ar anything so its a pretty pointless exercise but has high consequences if traffic comes to a sudden halt.
