Half way through the video another cyclist pulls out of the junction and starts going the wrong way down the duel carriageway before thinking better of it.

jon w read my post again,..this time,..all of it
Professional driver as opposed to what? amateur? be good to know where you have be assessed to achieve such an accreditation. As for being held up by slower vehicles, that's pots and kettles from a truck driver.
Surely the deffinition of a professional is someone who is paid to do a task. If that task is driving then yes you're a professional. If you're just popping to the shops..... not so much.Originally Posted by wesrrw
Hmmmm maybe in the sports world this is true, a bit to easy to apply if its down to being paid, like my nephew is a professional tabloid distribution engineer ;D ;D or paperboy ;D
professional driver,..as said is someone who is paid for doing it,..also,..someone who had to train to do it,..and has to hold a Certificate of professional Competence
ie weeks of classroom training!!..plus ongoing first aid training etc
i trained for 12 months in 1987,..driving,..first aid,.advanced driving,..basic mechanics,.off road driving,..driving on ice
so YES im a professional driver
as for holding up the traffic,..you are probably not aware,.trucks are only allowed to do 40mph on ANY single carriage way,..ie A roads
they are restricted to 56 MPH,..(making overtaking difficult)
so again,..different kettle of fish
Nice try but untimately.......Fail!Originally Posted by wesrrw
Bus driving professionals. Any of you 'in the trade'? We quite like to watch Wiltshire's equivalent of Santa Pod on a Saturday morning (the old road through Semington that none of us mere mortals/unprofessional drivers are allowed to drive on, only bus drivers) Amazing to see the speed some of the 'professionals' can reach along that stretch before hitting the roundabout by the Police Station. god help you should you be heading off the A350 for Berryfields and meeting a bus at the roundabout in front of the police station **Allegedly
ooh..forgot to mention,..i hate bus drivers too!
well,..apart from 1,..but thats a long story!
