What are they?
I have come across the term "white van drivers" a few times lately in posts under different Topics, and the term seems to be used in a derogatory manner. Could someone please tell me what the expression means?

Hello mate!! I own up!! I used to be a white van man!! and yes I do have tattoos and I do have a bit of a belly but no beer in it!!
And when I was working I was in White Van Man mode, I owned the road, I overtook everything I could even if it meant going down the wrong side and have even overtaken on the grass verge, I always selected the lane with least amount of traffic at traffic lights and roundabouts regardless of direction I was going, I just got away quick and pulled in front of everybody else to get ahead.
I am know a more steady driver having given up that line of work and drive at a more sedate speed and show a little more consideration to other drivers.
I was bad but now good!!

Cycling home from work one day, I came to cross a road at my usual point, over to the central reservation. A white van decided he was above all normal rules, overtook and passed the bollards on the wrong side, fu**ing nearly killing me. I just wanted to get home in peace and quiet, but this *******'s 5 seconds was more important than my life.
My other half was hit off his motor bike by a WVD a few years back. He had right of way yet the WVD pulled out from a side street sending my other half and the bike skidding across a main rd. The driver got away without a scratch but my hubby was concussed,had a broken ankle and back injury's followed by a nervous breakdown. One good thing,he won the case as the police prosecuted the WVD,took 3 years tho'. Bloody Transit Driver's!!!!!!!!
