I almost hit a truck cutting a corner coming into a flying j in texas I10 ex 732. It would have been bad. The guy sounded mad at first but I saw I was going to hit an stopped thank god. He gave me advice don't be an A hole slow down. Wide turns an check mirrors. My old co driver was in an accident were he didn't check his blind spot carefully enough. The thing is he might have marijuana in his system. It wasn't bad an the car left but he got a ticket for lane violations an stuff I was blessed to have looked back.
Accidents!!!

I think I got the idea?? You flip from subject to subject like my wife! LOL Go slow in truck stops I've almost been run over a few times cause drivers roaring thru grabbin gears and showing off.
Your new so always ALWAYS swing wide take as much room as you have and don't worry about how it looks to other drivers. As you get more miles behind you you'll get to the point where it's automatic swing/check mirror/look ahead/check mirror.
You'll know you got it down pat when you swing way out there and your driving your car! -

Thats why you should not become a lead driverbigwuz Thanks this. -
You gotta remember you are only allowed to drive like an idiot and fly thru truck stop parking lots when your in a swift truck...Then when they get on the big road they wanna ride in the middle lane at 60 mph and not move over

Truckstop =/= drag-strip, despite what the usual pricks in the Petes might like to believe.
