A tanker driver has told how he was tailed by about 20 drivers who were dismayed to discover he was not transporting petrol.
Johnny Anderson, who drives for Weaver Haulage, was transporting 44 tonnes of mortar from Bilston, Wolverhampton, to a building site in Northamptonshire.
When he reached his destination, he saw a line of traffic backed up behind him.
"The man at the front... actually said 'You could have stopped and told us you weren't a petrol tanker," he said.
"I couldn't believe it... I just went full McEnroe and said 'You cannot be serious!'
"Then the bloke behind asked me where the nearest petrol station was. It just beggars belief."

price a little, was a whisker under £1.40 a litre. Same place was 1.35 last time I passed by. Got £34 worth in though and
am good for my commute for another week and a bit. I've booked some time off to go car shopping next week. Talking
of price fluctuations I had my eye on a car on Auto Trader, main dealer approved used kind of thing. When I first saw it
the price was £14,650, looked at it again about a week later and it had dropped to £13,650 which made it a bit more
appealing, decided to book a viewing and went back to the ad a week later again. Price had risen to £14,980. I Left an
enquiry asking why this was and the salesman (who has already lost the opportunity to sell to me) called me yesterday
and started blathering on about how scarcity of used cars has caused the price to rise rapidly. I asked if they got more
for it then would they be sending the guy they bought it from a little extra or were they (like everyone else seemingly)
just using the scamdemic as an excuse to fleece more cash out of people? Then he switched tack and started banging
on about a micro chip shortage making it hard for them to get new stock. 'But I don't want a new one,' I replied,
'presumably this one already has all it's microchips in place already given it's 3 years old?'. Then he switched to car
salesman mode and started on about how he could reduce the price and what would be my best offer... Sigh...
It's a car, a depreciating asset, not a bloody house. I've already nexted them and am looking elsewhere now, shame as
the car was ideal, except for their fun and games with pricing. |
Some sales pitch.
The tank full/half full of petrol was justification enough to hike the price during a petrol scam.

Well it looks like a tanker.  |
The one pictured doesn't contain 44 tons of cement though.
At most the entire rig might weigh that much which is upper limit for normal HGVs
Which makes me think the entire story is fabricated TBH |
