Agree 100%..........(without blowing my own trumpet....) ALL road users should be made to drive Artic's.....preferably with a half full De-mount (liquid) on the back!!!!
I've always maintained that if ya can drive that 'smoothly' then ya can drive anything on the road!!! Very strange experience.........if ya stop 'normally'.....2 seconds later ya get a huge 'kick in the back' as if ya been rear ended n the whole lot jumps forward 3ft!!!!
