Seems the protesters are stopping trucks where they are protesting and using them as platforms so be alert out there. This was last weekend but I dont know how long they are planning on protesting. That 1 picture of the driver getting beat up was from 92 (The Rodney King mess). They say they are not hurting the drivers but I guess it could get ugly?

At least the Ga State Police took a stand. They said anybody caught on the interstate without a car would be arrested.

Any one here ever encounter this? I feel like I'll end up in prison, if some even gets close to my truck.
zentrucking, passingthru69, justa_driver and 2 others Thank this. -
i was in the truck strikes in 79 but it wasnt like big mobs everywhere. You just had to worry about getting shot or having something thrown through your windshield.

I feel like its going to get worse since this new pokeman game just came. They'll start throwing beacons and ####, right in the middle of the highway. I can't imagine being tired and out of hours and dealing with this nonsense.
