Mirror Guard - Black or White?

[Jenka]

Do you need qualifications to be a safe driver who concentrates and tries to anticipate other driver's ACTIONS? I don't think there is one unless your referring to ROSPA which I am afraid although I collected a few awards from them I really don't rate.BUSBY.

It's all about opinion I suppose .you do not rate ROSOA but happy to collect awards from them. Did you by any chance work in the oil or brewing industry as you said you had driven for a living .Yes there are numerous qualifications and I agree doesn't make you a safe driver but it's all about the behavioural attitude of the driver . Have a great sunday.

Mind there are some places, Up in the North Yorks Moors comes to mind, where the scheduler (why always the LWB Trucks?) has sent me, and getting in and out of farms is an exercise in it`self!. Memorable for the fact that to get the Waggon over the bridge before one farm it takes a 4 turn "shuffle". Drove in to one, and had a 3/4mile reverse to get out!. When I spoke to the guys in yard after, one said he`d got caught the first time and Reversed down and in the second time he went!. And regularly have to pull the mirror in to let a Tractor past!. Sometimes all for one pallet of whatever!.

And whoever is responsible for most of the signage, has never driven anything bigger than a Transit!. "Unsuitable for HGV" can mean anything from, the locals dont like lorries. to "Christ that was not easy". All part of life`s rich tapestry!.

Simple misjudgement on behalf of both parties. I stopped to see if any damage and he flecked of in a cloud of diesel smoke so we didn't get a chance to compare notes. Mind you he might have had to explain any marks on his roof.

Also mirror guards come in useful as SWMBO uses them as a guide to how close she can drive to the hedges.

Happy to collect the awards because it was a free night out ,BUSBY.
