  • Because following a GPS blindly is stupidity…yes in this case it has been out 10 years… but what if it was out 10minutes or what if it was some other hazard in the road or some road workers fixing somthing… you should be paying attention to the road and signs…now I agree signs should have been there. But just because the satnav says okay doesn’t mean driver can just blindly follow, you are a dangerous driver not aware of your surroundings and in wet conditions going too fast for the distance you can safely see.



  • As far as I am aware I don’t think we have any lorries the comment was about. All ours are still wheeled from the kerb to the back of the truck by a human operator on foot that then pushes the button that then lifts the bin, they are then unhooked by a human and wheeled back at least out the road.

    In the US (especially hot area) you put your bin a set distance from the sidewalk…no cars are parked on the street, the truck crawls along the curb and a robot arms grabs a correctly orientated bin using a camera, lifts it and return it to the sidewalk all requiring only the driver in his air conditioned cab.
