Dang it swift!

I hate to group all swift drivers in this. I am sure that there are good drivers there as well, but people want to know why people bash swift so much. Well chances are if you see someone running over another truck at a truck stop or see some hazard going down the road, odds are good that it will be ole swifty! Some of you guys are a hazard even when you are not in the truck! I stopped at a rest area the other day for a quick stop. (drank to much coffee) pulled into a spot. There were 2 side by side that angled off. Went in and came out and guess what? Some goofball swift driver that does not know what the lines painted on the lot are for. Had pulled up about 3 feet farther than he was supposed to. Don't know how he managed not to hit my truck because he had duct tape all over his truck holding parts on that he had tore off mirrors, etc. Anyway I did not have room to pull out without tearing his hood off. Was a sidewalk in front of me that I would have had to jump and still would have hit the stupid one beside me. Had a crete driver parked behind me on the side where no trucks are suppose to park so I could not blind side back. I knock on swifty's door. No answer. Now I am ticked. Curtain is closed, He is either in there or in the rest stop. Now I am beating on the door. If he is in there he knows I am knocking because all the duct tape is coming loose as I pound on the door! No answer, The only thing that stopped me from putting my winch bar through your window was the fact that the driver on the other side of me pulled out and I had enough room to swing wide and get out, but then it was still tight from the angle we were at! SWIFTY IF YOU ARE TO STUPID TO PARK YOU ARE TO STUPID TO DRIVE! Do something else for a living!

Maybe his trainer taught him not to open the curtains or door for strangers.

Too bad the trainer did not teach him how to park, but maybe he did not know either!
