Correct etiquette for passing or indicating a truck in front of you can change lanes

So you get blinded by a flash of the high beams in your mirror no less, and that is someone elses problem. If you cant see to drive at night you need to deal with that first. What are you going to do if an oncoming vehicle forgets to dim there head lights, drive off the road and crash?

 

Well It has been said already, We need to bring "Help your fellow man out" What does it take for in the snail race that the driver being passed is able to drop a MPH or 2 to not allow for 5 miles of 4 wheelers to get blogged behind them. They can drop it back so us that are governed at 68 MPH can hammer on down! I even do it in my 4 wheeler and they wonder what I'm doing. I just wave to them when I go on by them, Like they are the ignorant one. And any training program that teaches their drivers NOT TO DO shouldn't be doing this as it is just a nice courtesy that we all can use every now and again. Good Luck out there Drivers.

 

I will be the one in the blue WS flashing my high beams, so make sure to meet me at the next stop to correct the problem.

 

Ok 1st, I drop to running lights when it's clear to come back in. I also say "you got it (insert company name)" or skateboard, log hauler, beaver biscuts, etc on the the cb.


For those few loaner rigs with daytime run lights, I kick on the 4 ways.


As long as I'm not pulling a hill, I'll drop off the throttle to open you a space.


Yeah, I am a me 1st guy; I wanna complete the run with my fenders in the same condition I started with....

 

Well I have not seen a truck that if you turn the knob to marker lights the lights don't dim or go off. even ones with daytime running lights dim down real low....As for the highbeam issue someones going to get killed or hurt if people don't quit highbeaming. either someone is going to get blinded and wreck or some wheel holder is going to see the truck he is passing hit a bump and think he beamed him over and side swipe him.....I always flash off and on and am installing flood lights on the side of my cab and aiming them 58 ft back and about 4 ft over.....and yes I WILL return the highbeam right back to them.....screw these wheel holders and to the guy that commented that its the passer job to figure out if he is clear....its called helping out and respect something that has been lost in this line of work......

 

I got a hammer we can use to adjust those high beams...

 

forget fixing the headlights, lets fix the wheel holder driving it....
