--- Quote from: "thermidorthelobster" ---I watched a 7.5 tonne truck barrel down a sliproad on the M6, pulled straight across into the middle lane (the right lane was coned off) and knocked a Volvo through the cones and into the roadworks...

Some of these so-called 'professional drivers' in non-HGV trucks are extremely dangerous - they get out of a (small) car, and think 'It's not my fuel / vehicle, so who cares?', forgetting that even 7.5 tonnes is a real Battering Ram if it hits something.  I feel that a simpler form of the LGV test is required for these vehicles - and a speed limiter (set to, say, 65 mph) wouldn't go amiss, either.
