Political correctness gone mad

Recommended Posts

i know mate, i agree we cant have them driving lorries, she should get your job on the buses and that way there would be a polite driver who stops for passengers even if they are stressed, and you could drive the lorry without stopping.

I saw something today that truely made by blood run cold.

 

I was driving away from Meadowhall, when I saw a Articulated Lorry (yes one of those big ones with a trailer on the back) being driven

 

BY

 

A

 

WOMAN !!!!!!

You're stuck in a rut, and it's time you indeed move on! :rolleyes:

 

PS "What's happening to this country?". Needs an apostrophe and only one question mark. :thumbsup:

OK i'm going to be in the minority of women here and i am going to agree with you to a certain degree, i think i would've been surprised to see a woman driving and i feel more comfortable to see lorries being driven by men, not sure why though :confused: but some 'women' i use the term loosely look and act more like a man so if i saw someone like that i wouldn't be shocked :suspect: just realised this doesn't really make sense but someone might catch my drift :help:

There’s nothing wrong with women driving articulated lorries. I knew the daughter of the first female lorry driver in the U.K. — and that daugher, a bright, bubbly girl also had an HGV licence. And what a girl! She lived on the canal in a narrowboat and changed direction to become a newspaper reporter. I gave her her first job, and she proved just as good at that as she had in being an artic driver.

 

Some females are remarkably adept, so don’t knock ’em — worship ’em! I don’t enjoy being a passenger in a car, but I always felt safe when she was driving, and in fact I was safe! She cursed at the antics of other drivers on every journey we made, but she could certainly drive, and drive well.

I'm tempted to put on a comment, that would really stir up a hornets nest.

 

Shall I...... ?
