BBC NEWS | UK | HGV driver admits ramming cars

Seems he got off fairly lightly for what could have been attempted murder.

How slow was she driving in the outside lane for a lorry to ram her???

Jokes aside, that could have been very nasty.

It was in the roadworks between junctions 26 - 28 on the M1 - 50mph limit with the dreaded time-distance cameras

Looking at the video both the victim and the lorry were passing other cars.

The report says he did it to several motorists on the same day before the cops stopped him at Sheffield.

Beggars belief...

and many of these lorry drivers drive with no speed limiter and can easily get up to 80-90 at night

well we have to make good progress:D I must admit i have dreamed about smashing people off the road quite often but usually resort to shouting obscenitys and hand signals,plus the odd bout of fisticuffs onceor twice with scouse taxi drivers:D

Remember that bus that rammed the car out of the way in Watford a few years back? A car was stopped in the bus stop and would not get out of the way. The bus driver rammed them along to allow him to get into the stop. I saw the aftermath (police attended). The bus driver was prosecuted.
