    To the lovely man driving the jeep on the motorway this evening pulling a trailer the reason I flashed you was because the logs you had in the trailer were moving about quite freely and I felt they were going to fall off and probably cause an accident. Your welcome :)

    He probably didn't even take any notice of you. When I was driving up the motorway at 6am (dark) going to college a yaris decided he would drive up the motorway and through cork with his heads on all the time. Literally ever car lorry flashed him he still wouldn't dip even going through dunkettle interchange headlights on it was unbelievable.

    Another car was right up close to me on the motorway and no matter what I done went faster slowed he wouldn't pass me. Then eventually another car passed me and he passed me straight after and followed that the exact same as me. So it looked like he was following other which I don't get dangerous too.

    Well I haven't heard of any accidents on the motorway so maybe he did pull over but it was scary watching the timber move about. Some people become lunatics on the roads

    Definitely a well tied down load is important specially when traveling at speed. I can only imagine what damage would be done if a large pieces of wood came flying at a car. I have aload of ratchet straps in the focus for the odd time I tow a trailer. It's handy to have a few.

    Looks like a different reg.
    I'd say 600 would get that car in Wicklow.

    No it's in Blanch, and it's a phase one, mine is a phase two, so I'll just require a bonnet hinge from it :)

    650 didn't take it when I looked at it. I'd say the owner regrets that decision btw. It wasn't nearly as clean as the ad suggested and as things went bad on my motoring end I'm delighted I didn't buy it.

    You did well not to punch that twat that was giving you grief for "hitting" his driver. Gob****e of the highest order. On the plus side Marlow`s truck is the business.

    Proper channels were followed. The truck
    is some beast alright. You wouldn't even know it was pulling a trailer

    The guy had multiple 1 month site and forum bans. There's only so many "last chances" you can get before the admins have enough and just give you a permanent **** off.
    Thing is, what's easiest for the admins and what's best for Motors doesn't always coincide. I had occasion to ban the guy myself, but that doesn't mean that Motors isn't the poorer without him.
