    Jake brakes and straight pipes on the flat city streets , ignorant.
    Litterbugs like the driver throwing his chicken bones out the window that the next driver has to walk in , when slobo saunters out of the parking lot.

    Shippers & receivers that give you a 10 am appointment time then dont get you in the dock until 3 pm.
    If you cant get me unloaded or in the dock at 10 am......... dont give me a 10 am appointment time. If you treated me like you want me to treat you, we'd have a lot better relationship.
    The golden rule: "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."
    If you expect me to be there at 10 am, be prepared to get me unloaded at or at least somewhere relative to 10 am.

    Drivers taking their 30 at the fuel pumps or in front of them. Also drivers who honk instead of help other drivers taking too long to back in a space.

    No, it's "do unto others before they do unto you."

    Those that hang in the middle lane going slow, can’t get around when there’s a left lane law...

    overtaking a truck when mine is set on 68, I try t go around, now they bump it up to 70...

    those that see me making progress in the middle lane about to pass, and they jump out in middle lane ahead of me forcing me to back out...

    I always shoot through and pull up in the morning before hitting the road, never inside for long
