BJS Home Delivery Service is facing growing scrutiny after several of its drivers were filmed dangerously weaving in and out of lanes on UK motorways in what appears to be a desperate attempt to make timed furniture deliveries.
A YouTuber, who has been monitoring the company’s delivery operations, captured multiple instances of BJS drivers racing down motorways, engaging in careless driving and risking the safety of other road users. The footage, which has since gone viral, shows BJS vans swerving between lanes, tailgating, and speeding in congested traffic, raising concerns about the company's driving standards and delivery practices.
Motorists have expressed concern about the behaviour of these drivers, with many questioning whether the pressure of timed deliveries is leading to reckless actions behind the wheel. One commuter who frequently travels on the M1 said: “I’ve seen these vans flying down the motorway several times, and it’s really dangerous. It feels like they’re always in a rush, which is worrying.”
The YouTuber, who wishes to remain anonymous, stated in their video, “It’s shocking how these drivers are risking lives just to stick to a delivery schedule. I’ve been monitoring their driving habits for weeks now, and it’s clear something needs to be done. These are public roads, not racetracks.”
The footage has caught the attention of road safety campaigners, who are calling for BJS Home Delivery Service to be held accountable for the actions of its drivers. Brake, the road safety charity, emphasised the importance of safe driving for commercial drivers, especially those on tight schedules. “Speeding and reckless driving are never justifiable, especially from a company with drivers on the road daily. The safety of the public must come first.”
BJS Home Delivery Service has yet to make an official comment on the allegations or the viral video. However, pressure is mounting on the company to review its delivery policies and ensure that drivers are adhering to safe driving standards, regardless of delivery deadlines.
The DVSA (Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency) has been notified of the footage, and investigations may be carried out to determine whether BJS drivers are violating road safety regulations. If found guilty of reckless driving, the company could face penalties, and individual drivers could lose their licenses or face fines.
Motorway users are urged to report any dangerous driving incidents to the police or the DVSA, with hopes that heightened awareness will prompt businesses like BJS to prioritise road safety over delivery times.
