seen it on the news when he got through the window he then jumped in and drive away i was thinking he was gonna take heads off



A truck driver reversed at speed into a lorry then smashed its cab with a shovel in a terrifying "road rage" attack captured on camera.
The two vehicles had collided as they went on to the M62 in Greater Manchester, before tensions spilled over when they exchanged details.
After a tussle on the hard shoulder, the truck driver reversed his vehicle into the lorry.
Two men locked themselves inside the cab. The pick-up truck driver then fetched a shovel from his vehicle and smashed the lorry's window.
It happened at about noon on 9 November in Eccles.
PC John Cavanagh, of Greater Manchester's Roads Policing Unit, said: "Luckily neither of the men were seriously injured.
"However, they have been left terrified by the incident.
"Accidents happen and they were attempting to deal with the situation in an appropriate manner.
"No-one could have anticipated the level of violence they would then fall victim to."
Police are appealing for information from anyone who recognises the truck driver.

Was something to do with revenge and a truck was driven through a village in the early hours to destroy something.
Actually BB denied being the driver.

I wonder if there is more to this than meets the eye. The clip had the guy with a big phone taking a photo of the other 2 guys.
Then the clip I saw he seemed to be trying to get something off the guy he had just taken a photo of, did they grab his phone off him, that was my thought, then go into the cab with it?

Was he trying to get his phone back?
Report Just Checking • November 30, 2016 6:36 PM GMT
Oh I see saddo is maybe saying similar. I only saw the clip once but it lookd like they'd taken the phone off him.

So he's maybe an angry victim trying to get his phone back. IF a pair of tw@ts grabbed my phone I might go a bit mental. Maybe not THAT mental mind you, but you've not seen me when I've put a bet on because Money Tree said it was nailed on. Nothing is safe from the seethe :)

Thing is, the other impression I got from the news was the lorry drivers didn't go to the police either, it's just they've seen the film?
Which if correct - why didn't they go to the police if they'd done nothing wrong? Does that back up the "they stole his phone" theory?

Well they should check the footage for a phone and ask them where the phone is :)
Maybe they are the same cops who dealt with the london serial killer so aren't that ... sharp.

Plod went to the keeper of the tipper truck and he would not divulgd who was driving it,As the tipper was properly insured plod could not press him further as "no traffic offence had occured".
Sometimes i do wonder abouf our police "service" or maybe they do not want to upset the community

foolproof - Are you guessing?   It would seem that the deliberately reversing into another vehicle would constitute a traffic offence.  Therefore the registered keeper can easily be charged with "failing to provide driver information". Penalties for which could easily match those of the original offence.

Only relying what i heard listening to The Jeremy Vine show,The journo reported that she pressed the investigating officer on why they don't just arrest the keeper his reply was as i posted,All very strange
Report mokegibboni • December 2, 2016 1:49 AM GMT
I did notice on the clip that was shown that as the truck drove away after the incident, the registration of the truck was whitened out! Which implies that the number plate was legible and could be easily read from the video. Couldn't be easier for the police to find out who the driver was.

I'm just wondering if the police are not following it up as no official complaint has been received so far from anybody!

People don't need to complain about things like this i don't think as it's in the public eye
