40 years ago in a layby off the A2 near Dartford my trailer was robbed at 11pm , 6-7 men, tautliner curtain was obliterated, i feel for that lasses experiences

Hannah talks about parking in Germany and France being safe, secure and inexpensive. Just proves the saying over here 'Rip off Britain'. Take people's money and do NOTHING in return, just sit there getting rich on other people's misery. A lady here cannot do the job she loves because she doesn't feel safe, absolutely scandalous. Thank you for posting this and raising awareness.

We need to spread the word, and that seems really difficult.

I've been a trucker for over 20 years and nearly all of that spent tramping , i loved it and touch wood i never had anything stolen off my trailers but I've had the curtains cut to see what's in the trailer.
Once i had a couple of thieving morons try to steal fuel out my tanks but they never got any because my tanks were nearly empty but the morons took the sender unit out the tank and cut it in half and just wrecked it out of frustration for not getting any diesel.
All the times someone has knocked on my door at night were either trying to sell me copy dvds or stupid phone scams claiming you put a code in your phone for free calls for life so long as you pay the guy handsomely 😂😂😂😂😂.
