Hmm 62 mph, must be practicing for Prime.
People flip me off and I give them a thumbs up or a big grin and vigorous nod. Moves them right along.
I got a taste of what it's like to be a trucker yesterday

To the OP. When you recognize the situation and calmly take steps to avoid any conflicts THEN you're just beginning.

Wow just got back to this thread and skimmed through some posts and man i didn't expect all this. As usual typical internet fashion everyone thinks they know the whole story by a snippet post someone makes.
I learned a long time ago in life though if people think a certain way who cares because you won't change their mind even when you prove them wrong.
So i'll just agree with them and let them think they are right...i'm a road rager, i tried to joing Roehl for a year now LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL, i'm not professional, I'm an a hole, I raced to chase the car down that cut me off (nice story by the way) LOLLLLLL, I operated illegally towing that engine in a uhaul trailer and i will lose my CDL that i never even got yet LOLLLLLLLLLL
I can correct everyone of these statements but it's not worth it, again once someone has something set in their mind i just let them run with it.
Either way...see ya on the road soon haha. -
I've been driving 22 years now my personal vehicles never had an accident and i have a clean record. I also drive in a populated Philly suburbs on a daily basis.
Since you were not there and just ASSUME let me tell you what REALLY happened.
The on ramp onto that part of I-78 w was a pretty steep on ramp up to the highway so you cant see vehicles coming up it that's why they have a stop sign there. You won't know whats coming up that ramp until you are pretty close to that stop sign they have. This dude just blew the sign like it was a yield sign. I was watching I always watch on ramps when i drive. I live basically right around the corner of rt. 309 in the Philly suburbs where on and off ramps are every few miles. I know all about it.
I've driven defensively my whole driving career that's why i haven't had accidents.G13Tomcat Thanks this. -
I would of figured it is your inability to pay for fuel limiting your time on the road

It's a free world and I can understand you expressing yourself the way that you did but there are many nuts out there just waiting to snap. Don't escalate confrontations with morons. Also don't let the know it alls get you down. This job is 50% watch what you're down, 50% watch what they're doing and eventually you will get so good at predicting what they are going to do that you can safely navigate the morons. Best of luck to you.
