    To the driver of ICZ 5434 Renault Magnum truck with Road Ferry logos on the side of it , I would just like to advise you of the following :

    The stopping distance for a 40 foot container lorry at speeds in excess of 50kph is consideably more than 6 feet.

    The speed limit on the Kentstown road approacing Navan is 50kph ( and not what ever speed you were doing judging by the rate you barreled at me) and is has a speed checkpoint on a regular basis about a half a mile from the Dublin rd junction.

    The section of road I refer to passes a school, many entrances to housing estates and a pedestrian crossing.

    Last but not least you're a numpty.......Advice over.

    some artic drivers are mad was behind one heading out o town yesterday and he seamed to be going fast so matched his speed to see what he was doing, 50mph (i have a pre kph car) was how fast he was goin headin out o town, but the speed limit is still 30mph/50kph that part of town least if i have to preform an emergency stop i would have a hope o stoppin in time, an artic would take much longer than me. so slowed down and let him at it and it didn take me long catchin him once the limit went up to 100kph so dunno what his rush was tru town!!!!

    My friend was in Dublin about a year ago and a truck hit her B-pillar and bent the whole arch, and then the truck driver kept driving .
