The vehicle in question is a large Motorway Maintenance lorry. I am waiting at traffic lights on Matalan island to turn onto Aston Expressway, last of four vehicles in this lane, alongside this lorry. Lights change, we all move off, just as the roads separate get honked by the lorry who is moving from the Aston lane to the Expressway lane just a few feet behind me. OK, you get used to such things driving around Birmingham these days. However, this clown then accelerates recklessly in order to tailgate me for a while before overtaking and almost clipping me when he/she/it pulls in in front, again honking with horn, before speeding away at considerably more than the 50mph limit. This would have been bad enough if it were the usual VW/Audi clown but doubly so when in charge of a large lorry - whoever it is, is a menace and will surely cause an accident eventually (if they haven't done so already).
Hopefully their employer is reading this.
