Re: The all-new all things driving thread

They're doubtless provided so that the burly workmen and women driving those vehicles with huge flashing orange lights along the hard shoulder, know when it's time to slow down for the gate.

This will probably get me into trouble somewhere but in 25 years of driving I don't think I've ever seen a woman doing that job.

Equality for all, apart from women doing bin collections and driving those vehicles with huge flashing orange lights along the hard shoulder.

While driving down to Essex a week ago I stopped at Coneygarth Truck Stop for petrol and travel sweets (best selection I've seen so far) and one of those black and yellow Traffic Officer SUVs drove up to the one of the other pumps. I expected a grizzled old bloke to get out, but the driver turned out to be an elegant young woman in an orange hi-vis.

My car service cost £670 yesterday. Plus they detected a 'slightly' buckled wheel which will cost another £550 to replace if it gets any more buckled.

I've got Glasgow City Council highways dept and their potholes to thank for that, I think.
