Yea or horseboxes driven by fat middle aged horsey women with no qualifications to drive anything bigger than a Land Rover, that and the 1950's knackered Bedford engine contribute to the glacial speed and nearly solida exhaust emmisions.

True - but when Pete's concerned it's always fishing season!

It's old duffers in dark blue MY00 Impreza wagons that are always holding me up. Especially when they're towing a boat

Horse boxes are no problem, you can overtake without worrying the horses, assuming there are any inside. What about these pikeys that decide to take their pony for a trot along the road while they get dragged behind on something resembling a rickshaw!

arseholes!

Everytime I've been up Lincoln way I have been stuck behind a multitude of horse boxes.

Not only do they hold you up, they tow around trailers that are falling to bits (again why I say all trailers and caravans should have annual MOT checks), or some shed of a truck, which again evades most of the testing and plating that would have scrapped other non-horsebox 7.5tonner trucks half their age.


Not only do they hold you up, they NEVER pull into laybys to allow the long queue of built up traffic to pass.


Suppose, it makes a change to being stuck behind old duffers, like round here
