Problems on the road

Well I have been on the road now for 2 months and I am glad to be back behind the wheel of a Truck, to have the freedom of the road. The road system in the UK has got much worst now, with road works all over the place. M25 is know as the biggest car-park in Europe ,as traffic never moves on rush hour.A lot of places are like this now Motorways have gone from 3 lanes to 4 now to allow for the mount of traffic on Britons roads ,

Truck park prices have doubled in the last 4 yrs it cost now 15 pounds around UK but around London its 20/30 pound a night ,its highway robbery, now a lot of trucks try to park on side of the roads in lay-byes ,were its not rely safe place to park. Thee truck parks are in a right state rubbish is dumped anywhere except in the bins , and in the summer months it smells of urine very bad , the toilets are just as bad as they look like they could do with a right good scrub or renewed . But the showers are the worst of all its a very small room where you struggle to hang your cloths up so they do not get wet ,wall are covered in gunk and crime and the floor is wet all the time .They need sorting out.


I could go on forever about the trucking life in the UK,as we have no respect form the general public because we truckers are a nuisance on the road to them .but what the forget is they would have noting if it was not for the truck drive who brought all they need to live.
