Had occasion to drive from Brighton to Banbury on Friday, M23 M25 M40, and when turning onto M40 happened to see lorry driver leaning with forearms on steering wheel, mobile in hands and either texting or playing game. so as going along motorway, wifey was looking into cabs (i was in BIG van) and she saw at least 15 HGV drivers doing same between M25/M40 and Beaconsfield.?These are meant to be professional drivers.
Can now see why Mr Plod is taking up the sussex police idea of using HGV tractor cabs to be able to see into lorry cabs as the HGV drivers Mobile away the miles

I was out on the motorbike on Saturday afternoon and stopped for a sausage and egg butty at a roadside cafe, and in the time it took to eat the butty I saw 5 drivers pull in or drive past whilst on the phone.

What is it with folk, what is so important that they have to take or make that call?
