Some Good News – Possible Disciplinary Action for a Lorry Driver


Letter from Euromix – The Concrete People (remember when I saw a Concrete Mixer) using a cycle space at traffic lights.

“Dear Velochick:-

Thank you for your e-mail sent on 16/10/2008. Euromix Concrete takes road safety very seriously and all our drivers are trained and aware of there obligations regarding the Highway Code. We would appreciate it if you could take the time to forward your photographs of the incident to us. If we feel the driver has not followed the Highway Code then disciplinary action will be taken. I would like to thank you for bringing this to our attention.

This is excellent news. So, I will send a copy of my photograph (with Reg No). So cyclists, who see lorry drivers must get the reg number, time, details of the driver, date etc and send a photovideo etc to the company. After all, hit lorry drivers in their pocket if they do something wrong! Sometimes their own employers are more effective than the English legal system! At least something may be done.

Kind Regards
