Van drivers are most likely to blow their horns
The nation's van drivers are the most likely road users to use their horn or vocalise their frustrations, but on the positive side twice as many van drivers as car drivers let other vehicles pull out at busy junctions.
According to a survey of the motoring manners of the country's road users by Vansunited, bus drivers are the least courteous but perhaps they've used up all their charm being nice to passengers.
Apparently almost two thirds of bus drivers don't observe amber traffic lights and they are unlikely to let other drivers out at junctions. More shockingly, almost half don't stop at designated crossings when a pedestrian approaches.
Now we know that traditionally in this country pink is for girls and blue is for boys. But when we talk about road haulage we all know it's a tough industry and such distinctions are not really necessary except at Merseyside waste haulage company City Centre Commercials it seems. The firm has recently bought two Daf CF85 tippers and decided to paint them pink for its two female drivers.
MD Pat Beckett says that giving Susan Cubley and Sarah Farragher distinctive pink trucks makes it plain that the world of tipping is not exclusively a male preserve.
