    And maybe truck drivers should have the same .
    I can not remember on how many occasions I tried to call the Truckies on 40 to give me way and get told to fuck off or have no response

    I have been lucky, the truckies have always helped me safely overtake when I call them.

    I’ve found most of the time you can’t have channel 40 on when you’ve got kids in the car.

    Yes, mostly they will as I noticed but most caravaners will try and do the right thing too
