    Yeah. People who are not familiar with the rules of on ramp merging.
    No big deal, frankly.
    That's every day for me

    Some idiot plowed into the back of me at about 80 mph . Dude was so lucky he hit my tire and not the center of the bumper or he probably wouldnt of walked away

Ok whatever... they left me high and dry out here , ijust called and they never set it up and they all went home at 5pm. Real dicks i tell ya... u know i could handle the conditions of this job and the low pay but when ya leave me hanging , i just dont put up with that

    No i was merging onto the freeway and he came up behind me and never stopped . Either fell asleep or on drugs or on phone. Expired registration, expired insurance. But somehow still has a license...

    Didnt hurt me at all.. My first thought was the guy was dead because he veered across 5 lanes of traffic and ended up in the median against the guard rail... i called 911 and he was out and walking around ... thank god... felt like i was gonna puke

    Sounds more to me like you're fed up with the company, not trucking in general. I saw that thread... I'm glad you're ok. Kinda makes ya wish you were back in the keystone state, huh? :)

    That’s not so bad. A Little duct tape And you’ll be good to go.

    Could have had someone do this.
