Exclamation Put some space between
I would like to ask all Truckers out there to remember to put some space between us. I had a couple of close calls this week with trucks who were way to close behind me. I know someone is going to say I dont know nothing because I havent been out here forever but maybe some ppl forgot about the time and space req. to stop a truck. All I am asking is to be nice stop giving guys like me so much #### on the C.B. and dont ride my ###. I am just keeping you, me and our families safe and I hope you will too.

I agree that some truckers do get a little close for comfort and I for one do put atleast 700 ft between me an another truck...but I don't think anyone here will say anything about you being a "new driver"...we all started the same way....as far as the CB its a useful tool if used correctly....Good
Luck to you...

Hey norther, do what you gotta do driver. And if the chatter on the CB gets too much, then shut it off. Just keep being safe.

AGREED! I like SPACE myself. What's that saying? "To Close for Comfort"

See up in the top right the set of scales there beside the post number and the "report this post" buttons?

If you click on that set of scales, you can give someone rep points - good rep or bad rep.
