    Today, a driver from NorCal Pipeline made a U-turn across the median on Hwy 58 just east of the truck stops in Tehachapi. He also has a flammable load placard. He finished his U-turn on the right shoulder making a truck in the right lane slow down for him. I ended up next to him but the truck number was so small I couldn't even see it. He then proceeded to haul-### down the hill to Bakersfield. I felt like calling up his company but didn't have the truck number or dashcam to prove it. What would you do?

    A trailer number is just as good.

    You report drivers for pissing? I think that's a bit harsh! Just be happy he's not throwing piss jugs onto your lawn! :D

    Not for pissing. For pissing on the pavement. Too effing lazy to walk inside or over to a grassy area. I have zero tolerance for that crap.

    I reported one I see in the truck stop that had two different colour eyes. Creepy #######.

    I think I've been hauling gravel around in circles for too long! Only once you've achieved the ability to piss anywhere, at any time, on any day, comfortably and with full confidence no matter who's around, can one truly become an honorary dirt hauler!

    I came close to sending my dashcam vid to fedex once but I realized they prefer their drivers that way so I said why bother.
