The driver of this heavy tipper drives on the M42 in heavy traffic at 60 mph and 2m behind cars for long stretches. He is an accident waiting to happen
I was doing 52mph and saw this tipper fastly approaching me in my rear view mirror. He sat right on my bumper so I cut my speed but nooo this tw?t didn't take the hint and continued to drive a few inches from me. I turned off in the end and he carried on A5 brown hills heading towards Tamworth. Webcam needed so can record footage of tools like this and send to their company hq

This dude doesn't know how to use a motorway (M5 north, weston super mare to Gloster) hogged Lane 3 and not overtaking as Lane 2 at times was clear. Doing it on purpose and then brake checked me twice!!
Absolute dangerous driver. in the end I undertook, which he didn't like and then chased me (and took photos of me) very angry man
I was on the motorway at around 05:00AM, it was very quiet and I was travelling at 73 mph in the left lane.
This courier sped up behind me and proceeded to tailgate me, only overtaking at the last second, at which point he was dangerously close.
- I was not driving at 60 mph, so he couldn't have been angry with me for my lack of speed
- There was no one in front of me, i.e. there was no chance he could've been holding back behind me for fear of me pulling into the middle lane
- He wasn't travelling behind me to get off at the next exit of the motorway, as he didn't get off at the next exit or even the one after that
- I had no prior contact with this driver, so they had no reason to be angry with me, so it can't have been road rage...
- All my lights are working fine, so there was no way he couldn't have seen me, unless of course he was fast asleep
He did apologise, I think. He briefly put his hazards on anyway. That might not be an apology.
Either way, I'm confused and a little worried about his driving as it could've caused an accident.
On the plus side, it's motivated me to always have my dashcam set up in future.
Pride and joy....stolen
