This happens to ofen, because HGV drivers are being paid by the trip, not the hour. If they block the motorway after the accident, sue the bas*ards!

Not all HGV drivers get paid by the trip! and most are competent drivers its just a minority that give them a bad name. And what about you so called business (to use your words)"idiots" who leave everything to the last minute and speed around then don't give HGV drivers room for manuver then moan cause you feel they've cut you up. and NO im not a HGV driver and yes ive had my fair share of Idiots when ive been out driving but lets not tar with the same brush.
