Petrol shortages: U couldn't make it up!
« on: October 03, 2021, 01:24:43 PM »

A tanker driver has told how he was tailed by about 20 drivers who were dismayed to discover he was not transporting petrol.

Johnny Anderson, who drives for Weaver Haulage, was transporting 44 tonnes of mortar from Bilston, Wolverhampton, to a building site in Northamptonshire.

When he reached his destination, he saw a line of traffic backed up behind him.

"The man at the front... actually said 'You could have stopped and told us you weren't a petrol tanker," he said.

Now it is threatened by lorry drivers that fuel tankers won't get through due to those idiots who are glueing themselves to the roads ...... how selfish can people be! and I bet if I sat in the road, the Police would soon move me away!!!  What a waste of police resources  :-\
