    One of the things i hate the most is four wheelers with cbs. Not because they have them. I mean i would put one in my car too. BUT because to them its a toy. Something to piss off a driver. Any driver can verify how much we had to pay our dues out here on the road. How how trucking at times is hard. Then you have these loud mouth ######## being smart on the radio. Saying nasty crap about truckers, getting their cbs to play noises when keying up to key up over us as we are getting directions. These pricks have no consideration for is out here. I will be the first to let a 4 wheeler in line when they want but when you get on the radio and act lile a moron. You cross the line. I dont enter their homes and spit nasty words at them but they come onto the radio( the main tool that drivers use to communicate ) and insult us. I aint a caged animal. Im a working man behind the wheel of a rig and i deserve as much respect as these fools do when thwy are at their jobs. It just pisses me right off. Am i right or wrong?????

    Location, Location, Location, just like business, is very important. Around here, not many 4-wheelers have CBs, and I doubt they use them. There's only a few places that it gets bad, and those are at the local T/Ss.

    No I don't think you're wrong it agrivates me as well. I have a simple solution that I use. I just ask the idiots if they want to make the moive joy ride based off a true story? might only be 5'10" and 120lbs sopping wet but they don't know that guess that's why I don't run my mouth on the radio never know who's on the other end or how crazy they are if they thought the same way they wouldn't be talking #### on the radio.

    Plenty of truckers on the CB way worse than the motoring public.

    I know the question was not aimed at me, but if Treefork had not made that post, I would have. The ones that aggravated me the most, were the ones that did their best to be annoying. Got so I just turned the CB off, so I wouldn't have to hear it.

    If I wanted to hear garbage, I could always listen to Howard Stern. . .

    I'd have to agree with you there and the foreigners speaking Spanish or Arab on 19. I'm like you if I wanted to listen to garbage there's always Howard Stern or a rap station either or.

    i'd rather hear to spanish or arab than the antagonizing racial or sexist stuff. Most of the nonsense doesn't bother me, it's like the four wheelers that cut you off only because they don't want to be behind you..... i just let it roll off like water on a ducks back.

    Guess you got me there. I dont hear much racist and sexist stuff at night its usually the foreigners speaking there language cutting in on me and another driver. Guess im just as guilty though i can change channels just like they can.
