[QUOTE="Pennine Ploughing, post: 7672114, member: 999"] Aye it would be ok, also they should let HGVs off with the annual test or 6 weekly inspection so no fixing unless it's broke, let them run on red diesel and add blue deleted, driven on a car licence, no driver hours regulations so there can work 24/7 when busy, get rid of the driver cpc training crap, and give them free road tax for good measure, then get rid of DVSA check points and let them crack on, but make it mandatory to do away with blue tooth phones, so drivers have to hold the phone, after all we don't want them getting lazy, Also if lorries from livestock areas could carry string, bale wrap, medical equipment and a claw hammer with a set of stilstons or self grips in the cab and not have a day off or time to wash the lorry, the lucky ones from arable areas be allowed to work only half the year with skiing and shooting be mandatory, and not starting to 9am, this gives the school run mum's a chance in a morning when they are late, And here is an idea, pay the lorry drivers a lot less, around minimum wage, or better still take them on self employed only to save costs of holiday pay, sick pay, nee PPE to provide, and pay them when you fancy so no need to be regular So it would be a free for all, And go 1 step further along by making cyclist's and pedestrians free game just for sport, with a rack on the front for pedals and shoes to show your achievement of how many you have hit After all lorries may not be feeding the world, but there certainly moving it, Tin hat on, and head down in the bunker, all said in jest, but could be true in some circumstances [/QUOTE]
