    Try the sshhhhh.. approach,next time a driver tries that.
    NOTHING makes a grown man madder than someone shooshing
    them.
    Just put your pointy finger up to your lips,and sssshhhh,then tell
    him your trying to hear your reefer unit.
    You may,then need to run like hell,or grab a tire thumper,but I
    promise it will make you feel better :laughing-guffaw:

    I know one thing, do NOT be smoking when you go into a California scale. Was running team with a guy who was smoking going over the scale on Cajon and he got a $480 ticket for " smoking in the public workplace". I kid you not! Company had another driver I know of get ticketed for the same thing at the Santa Nella scale. Talk about ridiculous!!

    I don't understand why nonsmokers don't just quit whining about everything! You have the truck stops, restaurants, bars, casinos, planes, malls and everywhere else under a roof I can think of. Will you at least leave us smokers the outside? :biggrin_25516:

    No, they won't. Just like any other sniveling bunch of over-regulating liberals, they won't be happy until EVERYBODY conforms to their precious standards of behavior, even if they have to beat you over the head with Washington D C to do it.

    By the way, I refuse to use vaporizors because I have yet to find one that tastes as good as that first Marlboro in the morning. DEAL WITH IT!

    Congrats. I don't smoke anymore anyway (nicotine gum) but I woke up to my co-driver getting a smoking ticket at Cajon and neither of us could believe it. He actually laughed thinking the cop was joking which didn't help either. He hired TVC to try getting out of it but he didn't and ended up out $480 plus whatever he paid for his TVC membership. Ludicrous!
