Why not? He’s a lorry driver who knows the ramifications of committing road traffic offences....
My opinion on this is so very much different, that child should be put into care.
In my experience from growing up boozing in country pubs, it was always lorry drivers who risked it driving home full at the weekend. I never understood why they done it when they very job depended on it.
^ There's a high chance if either of these two clowns get to court that they'll just use the hardship excuse that tugs at the heart strings of most judges and get away with points and a fine.. If either drive again it should really be extended tests for all categories after a long ban
Who the hell would employ them after is probably down to the more unscrupulous operators

I wouldn't say so. That's like saying the medical profession is under question if Harold Shipman can become a doctor. There are plenty of lorry drivers out there who are probably outraged at the actions of these two inbreds and don't appreciate being tarnished by their actions.

You would think other drivers of all people would want them off the road so as not to further tarnish the profession but apparently not...

My brother is a trucker himself (but not a tang) and he has had nothing but bad things to say about this gobsh*tes actions. Which I'd understand, since he's a decent human being.
why should it. there's balloons in all walks of life!
Yeah she was going alright. Young fella just needs a year to 2 build his confidence.
She doesn't go near the bang at all
ye it wasn’t a statement was more a question. But suppose the job has had a fair bit of bad publicity recently with different issues. And that’s only what’s been caught on.
but as said true to all walks of life.

My tractor insurance specifically states I don't have cover for road runs. Doesn't worry me as I have better things to be at.

I think you vastly underestimate the amount of boozy work drivers out there. When I was doing courier work, the amount of drivers in the mornings in various depots reeking of drink would scare you.
And never once did employers do any checks etc.
And certainly never seen the law do any checks. Although the dippers could often be nearby checking for red diesel. #drunkdriversdontmatter
There are 5592 miles of road in Northern Ireland - if you haven't happened to have to seen checks on your commute/routes, don't be so close minded as to assume that is the case everywhere. I've seen them being done, I've also been stopped and breathalysed myself a few times though never had alcohol in my system.
They average 2700-3000 prosecutions per year for drink driving so obviously someone is checking - that's 50 drivers every week in a relatively small land mass.
