HGV drivers are people who earn a living by driving. Do you think they would jeopardise their income by going for a ride and cause as much damage as they can get away with. Sooner or later they would be caught and then what do they do?

I have sympathy for people with damaged property, but as others have pointed out it is very likely that the driver was not aware or the damage they caused. Who is to blame? To blame a driver is too simplistic and the future damage is likely to occur again. I thought that the planning regarding delivery access is the route to change things. (Already hinted as a problem by IWAF)

So compiling a list of possible damage is a good start which I guess was the original post's very idea. Not sure how many residents of David's and affected roads are on the forum so the thread has gone on the topics others could contribute to.

My hunch is that it may well happen more often than the residents would be happy with, and I am all for supporting them in getting the problem resolved. But I would avoid blaming the individual drivers and try to get their support too in what is possibly a nightmare for them to negotiate.
