A question for lorry drivers

Question

Why do you insiste on trying to overtake other lorries going ever so slightly slower than you such that it takes 5 minutes to pass them!? Do you realise the traffic jams you cause? Do you do it deliberately?

Answer 1

I'm not a lorry driver, but I am an ex pizza delivery driver... stick with me here, I do have a point.

When you spend the vast majority of your working day driving, you develop a sort of arrogance and intolerance to any other road driver. You feel like you're more entitled to drive on the roads than normal civilians- and I think this is why lorry drivers play games with one another.

They know that going 60mph as opposed to 59mph isn't going to make any difference. They also know they can't physically go faster than 60mph (thankfully!). They also know that all the people who were driving at 65mph in the middle lane will now move into the fast lane and continue at 65... irritating the rest of us.

If your job was to drive up and down, up and down, day by day, you'd probably have to find ways to amuse yourself too!

My answer- buy a tank. I reckon it'd be able to take on a lorry.

Answer 2

Yes, they do it deliberately just to irritate  you. Grow up!!
