Discussion
I understand the frustration, but the driver appears to be doing around 5 mph!

If I were this particular 'plank' and driving that slowly caused outbursts such as this, I would wish you good luck and would stop transporting or delivering anything.
Having driven through water such as this myself, 2 or 3 mph is enough to cause such a wave.You either want the trucks to move items around in such adverse conditions, or you don't.

Spot on !Having driven through water such as this myself, 2 or 3 mph is enough to cause such a wave.You either want the trucks to move items around in such adverse conditions, or you don't.
Don't think he could have made that wave much smaller, its just the physics of a big vehicle moving through a flood. Unlike the HGV which drove past me in a flood when Sheffield flooded a few years ago, managed to create a wave that cleared the roof of my car and the ones in front and behind!

Put yourself in the farmers wellies , or any local resident for that matter . They've been flooded for weeks and no Having driven through water such as this myself, 2 or 3 mph is enough to cause such a wave.You either want the trucks to move items around in such adverse conditions, or you don't.
seems to want to help them . Keep building on the flood plains , stop dredging , keep sending millions in foreign aid . Let the tax paying nationals bend over and take it again .fttm said:
