There is a video on the net that came into my news feed of a van of ours,the driver driving like a tosser and in a dangerous way,licence plate on show ect
I'm not going to put it up obviously (and I will delete any posts with it or similar types) but other road users are as it's the in thing now.

Nuff said.
I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Postman,

I think I've just watched the video (involving a Vivaro van). My comments are:

1. The RM van is not in the wrong lane. The highway code says it's perfectly acceptable to go straight on at a roundabout in the second/outside lane.

2. The RM van did not appear to cut across into the nearside lane.

3. We only have the other drivers word that the RM van is speeding - there is no indication of either the car or vans speed.

4. I thought it was illegal to photograph RM vehicles and show their reg and location.
How much worse can it get? A LOT F****** WORSE !!!

Could have sworn a solar powered camera took my mug shot while doing an attendance call recently at someone's home.
