Lorry pushing car (ORIGINAL UPLOAD) 07-02-10

driving along the A1 motorway, this lorry driver doesn't notice the car in front!
in the car is a woman sat in the drivers seat!
I video'd this myself and this is the original upload on youtube, any other upload of this video is a copy of this one.

Which part of the A1 was it billy?

ABC news were trying to say it was in west yorkshire.

Anyway.. If I saw that, I'd have been rubbing my eyes!

@mraberrant why the hell do you call it a "truck"? It's a lorry.

Americans can be so dumb! Apparently there isn't a world outside the US! I guess the main question should be why do they call it a truck? Considering they apparently speak English!

@BhamMissy79 you may hate us but we bring you everything, the computer you typed this on to the food in your belley to the clothes on your back even the house your in, the car driver was found at fault for this accident she had conducted an undertake manouver in court she was given a £200 fine and 6 points for driving without due care, your views on us orry drivers are dumbfounded we are more qualified to drive than most drivers and if i put you in my truck you probably will have no clue.

@vical87 Actually, we all speak the English Language, Americans speak the American English Dialect, Australians speak the Australian English Dialect and the English speak English.

The Language is the root, and dialects are regional variants on the root language :)

@vical87 - your rite, but perhaps your comment should be aimed towards mraberrant (see earlier comments)!

@jsarg1975 A lorry in your country, a truck in ours. Americans speak, AMERICAN. Australians speak, AUSTRALIAN. English speak, ENGLISH, all from English dialect, but all different, SILLY.

In the United Kingdom and Ireland, lorry is used instead of truck, but only used for the medium and heavy types; i.e. a van or an off-road four-wheel drive vehicle such as a Jeep may rarely be called a truck in the United States, but would never be regarded as a lorry in the UK or Ireland. The same applies to the initials HGV (for Heavy Goods Vehicle), which is basically synonymous with lorry. What the Americans call a station wagon (a type of automobile) is called an estate car in the UK.
