Unfortunately his attitude towards the television programme 'Truckers' being a harmless bit of fun does not help our industry (indeed his industry).
What we have in this programme is a collection of the worst stereotypes available, all masquerading as truck drivers: and as we know too well, what the public sees on fictional television is often taken as real life.
When so little appears on the small screen about the road haulage industry, it is important that what does gives a true picture of it.
So come on Mr Cowan, if you really cared about our industry you wouldn't so flippantly dismiss 'Truckers' as harmless. After all, if people like you can't speak up for trucking, who will?
