    Nope they havent forgotten. They just dont CARE who they hurt or whos way they get in anymore. Whatever their desire is they DESERVE for everyone else to get out of their way and cowtow to it. And sadly its only going to get worse.

    IDK,when people forget the simplest of tasks (such as using a turn signal when required) it kinda makes me wish everything was shutdown again to get the morons off the road.

    The stupidity & disrespect wears on a driver. It's only been 2 weeks since I got back in a truck and now I remember why it sucked. At least I'm not dependent on wages to survive. Trying to make it till Fall.

    RIP family.

    Drove that road last Monday. Too many drivers of both cars and trucks act like a-holes on that road. Specially flat-bedders headed fer Norfolk.

    2 lanes, not great condition, crappy little Nebraska shoulders and someones always riding your ###, whether yer going 55 or 68 mph ( speed limit there is 65).
     
    Bud A. Thanks this.
