I went back to page one for this one, I was not surprised to see that too tall is a recently new driver, not a surprise to me. Just because you drive a truck you think people in cars are going to stop, or move out of your way. Take a deep breath, the most people on this site at one time, is less then two thousand, out of the millions of people living here. Nothing personal but this is a rookie mistake, don't like being in that position, don't set yourself up for it, like you did here. People in cars don't see a truck as a threat, a lot of them see it as, early retirement. It is incumbant on the driver to protect, A-the truck B-the load C-the public and last but really the most important, YOURSELF.

Don't you mean a "recently new EX driver?"

I apologize, that wasn't very nice of me to say. We do however need to "weed out" a good portion of the drivers in this industry. Some folks, ok many folks just aren't cut out for a driving profession. Just because you can drive the truck, doesn't mean you know how to drive the truck.

Good explaination Nuthin, and I always thought it was:

'Just because you can drive a truck, that doesn't make you a trucker'.
