    I followed this guy off the M1 :eek: a few weeks back and I know I should not be taking photos while driving but I was just doing 10 kph when I got behind him. He had 3 wheelbarrows on the roof and in the car what looked like 3 oil filled heaters a few garden hoses and some truck parts

    Brilliant photo's OP.

    That man probably drives like this on a regular basis, love to see

    a cop car come across this. That said he'd probably be sent on he's

    way "Don't do that again" :rolleyes:

    Did he stop to retrieve his fan, or did he arrive at his destination, look for it, couldn't find it, rang the shop, gave them a bollocking, etc...?
    Don't see the problem with "tick", that's how it's pronounced in " down de counthryside"

    Seen nutballs like that before and when i do i just pull over if i'm behind them and wait till they are well ahead and then continue my journey. that dangerous sh1t pisses me off as i don't want a lump of something coming off that to hit me or cause me to swerve.

    Quite an asshole that person is.

    I believe that there is medication that can remove ticks. I would like to apply it to the one that uses his mobile phone while driving.

    Too right, this prick could do some serious damage to other cars (or people) driving down the M1 like this. Those photos should be sent to the Gardai.
