Trucker Bad Behavior

your safety director will say "you should always expect, the unexpected".

he is not going to defend you gaining speed on someone's butt. that in of itself, can be taken or viewed as "aggressive driving"....by your safety director, or even one of his flunky's.

 

again, it goes to what i had said earlier, you should have paid BETTER attention to your mirrors, and got out of that lane sooner, and passed the slower truck, then get back over.

you had not anticipated anything, but a stupid video of yourself, being a fool.???

honestly, i have never really seen anyone like you, reporting on others, yet you do the same. how you ever got your CDL is beyond my comprehension. why you have not crashed and maimed or killed someone, is beyond me. but in time, it all catches up to everyone.

be sure to have the cameras rolling in your soon to be big wreck. then have the nerve to tell us, "it wasn't my fault, yadda, yadda, yadda"...

 

Being a newbie here, and exploring getting a CDL, I have a few thoughts. Knowing some companies train the majority of CDL holders, if this was a trainee, and a member here, I would be even more nervous about climbing a hill if I were them. No one is perfect, so what if he/she missed a gear? Maybe they were learning and this was their first climb behind the wheel. From reading some of the comments some here never missed a gear, or were never new and needed to learn. Must be nice to be able to jump in the seat and know what you are doing from day 1 and drive perfectly every mile. I appreciate those who have passed on their wisdom, but some things you can tell someone a million times how to do it, but until you actually perform the task you don't learn anything.

 

It may have not even been a newbie, it could have been a mechanical deal, who knows. Everyone at some point in time has missed a gear, I occasionally still do. Just another reason why you keep your eyes peeled.

 

what i bolded.

NO, the safety person would have had a field day on your butt had you crashed with that merging 4 wheeler. again, you assume and assume very poorly that others around you will drive properly. you are still the professional and must always drive in such a professional manner and expect the unexpected. you are making up one excuse after another, trying to get yourself out of this jam (or grave) you keep digging deeper and deeper.

i guess by the time you finish digging your career grave, you would be having dead Chinese people next to you, as we can clearly see, that career grave of yours, is near the land of China.

in all fairness to others who read your asinine comments and view your stupid videos, (even if for only a few short seconds) and to be completely honest, to me, you sir, are a hack of a driver.

 

It's very nice indeed!

No one is perfect and I doubt anyone will claim to have driven perfectly every mile.

Many of us continue to learn everyday. Unfortunately, some seem to have stopped learning long ago.

 

I might go with it is unfortunate that you got stuck behind Prime. As for getting so close I would use a different word.
