    Yea that wasn't me, haha. I'm not in a Volvo. Also, I dont go off into the shoulder. I think its a combination between the fifth wheel, overthinking, and tensing up. If I feel like I'm struggling I won't look over either and just try to keep to the right side and time their wind correctly.

    If wind from a passing truck bothers you honestly, you are in the wrong profession.

    No they don't. Status light on reefer isn't even visible. Thanks for your valuable input.

    I'm an old reefer pusher with more time than I care to admit. I was always able to see the status of my reefer in my mirrors. In fact, part of my scan was that light. I'm not sure what you consider a status light to be.

    When I look in my mirrors, the left side always looks straight but the right side looks slanted. I thought that was what you were saying. I will leave you to your problems.
