Just you watch as he get away with some community service because he is "traumatized by crashing into the artic", and the artic driver loses his insurance, licence, job and has to do 3 months and pay compensation.

Just you watch...


From the article "The Met said the lorry was inspected by officers and the driver, who had cooperated fully with the investigation, had not been reported for any offences."

I think the lorry driver should have been done for not trying hard enough Rolling with laughter

joking aside some member of the public clearly not happy with what happened started questioning if Waitrose was instructing their drivers to wipe out motor cyclists - flaming do gooders!

bronze medal for the truck driver, could so easily have been a gold Twisted Evil but they got off on foot

Bleeding Heart comments its already started for some people, a thief is a thief who in my opinion deserves everything they get. But not for some persons


Hi waitrose is it the policy of your company to encourage your HGV lorry drivers to use their vehicles to crash into alleged moped thieves? The two young men fled the scene after the violent act and we are unsure of the severity of their injuries.

A Twitter user who shared footage of the aftermath of the incident online, claimed the driver had demonstrated a “disregard for human life”.

“There was an incident before the crash with a police officer and he was injured. However, the sentence for violent theft in Britain is not death,” they added. “The Waitrose driver acted in a way that could have resulted in these young men’s deaths.” For those who like Welsh Mountains and narrow boats have a look at my videos and photos at..

don't get me started - bit like the car crash up North yesterday were 4 youths died ( Laughing ) while being chased by police. the accusations have started suggesting police car nudged them. I believe disproved already and besides so what if it did - they shouldn't have been speeding away from a police car.

the tree they crashed into could so easily have been group on innocent people walking down the street Evil or Very Mad

reminds me of the crash in B'ham Christmas eve - only them puppets killed 3 innocent people too.
