Well then he's a ****ing knob who should lose his ticket.

I can understand it when traffic is heavy and if they sat and waited until

it was clear enough they'd be there all day, but I've had it happen heaps
of 
times when I'm the only car within cooee and they pull out anyway rather 
than just wait the extra five seconds for you to pass and then go after
you.

It has ****loads to do with it :)

With respects, if 90% of the country's truck drivers weren't in such a 
****ing hurry to go nowhere quickly we wouldn't be having this discussion.

What amazes me is that just about every truck I see doing something stupid

like speeding or tail-gating is a company truck driven by some retard on 
****ing *wages*.

What the **** is *that* all about? :)

Good move I reckon. It's got to be one of the most *boring* jobs on the 
planet.
