The other day I was stuck behind a swaying horsebox going from Enniskillen to Sligo. Not ONCE did this ignorant bastard move over to let other traffic past, instead he kept out as much as possible so no one might make it past him.
You can always spot them, brand new SUV, brand new horsebox, they think they own the road and how dare we plebs want to overtake them.
It is high time these people where made by law to pull over to let other traffic off, because being forced to overtake these ignorant bastards is dangerous and I would feel sorry for the horses, if not the pillock behind the wheel of his 08 suburbian tractor. So, if you drive a horsebox at about 30 kp/h, whilst swaying gently from side to side with about 2 miles of traffick behind you, if I spot you at 3AM, 30 miles away from any civilisation, with a broken gearbox in the pouring rain I will pull up to point and laugh at you for 30 mins and drive on in the knowledge that it couldn’t happen to a more deserving person.

After Niall’s plea for someone to take it over I thought long and hard about what would happen and I couldn’t bear to lose this little bit of Irish motoring history.

Who am I? I’m Donncha O Caoimh and I run a number of other blogs and dabble in WordPress code for most of the day so hopefully I’ll find time to do some interesting things with this site.

shitedrivers.com now lives on one of my own servers. Some features of the old site haven’t made it over and I probably won’t run a forum here. The old forum only managed 2 or 3 threads in total and are a magnet for spammers.
