    On the flip side, I've seen some awful drivers, super truckers and clueless foreigners, that are tailgating and making unsafe maneuvers. Those are the ones that brought on all the lawyers and regs.

    A decade ago, a driver was moving a loaded 13 axle schnaubelwith part of a wind tower. Big load. Had a pole car, two pilot cars, TWO HIGHWAY PATROL for extra public safety. Some non driving idiot drove through all of those flashing lights and hit the 250000lb schnaubel. Killed his wife. Swore up and down that he didn’t see it. 17ft wide and tall, nearly 200 feet long, quarter of a million pounds, beacon lights all over and still couldn’t see it.

    this is why America is doomed. If someone can’t see a 200 foot long load with flashing lights they’ll never see what the government is doing.

    Or better yet some people watch it happen, some people make it happen, and some people don't know what the hell even happened...

    Holy hell man, you are snake bitten!! It's unfortunate that even if you're not at fault, trucking companies and insurance companies look at you like you have a dark cloud over you.

    I get annoyed with the headlines like "Truck driver crosses median, kills busload of nuns and children", then you read the article and find out the "truck driver" was in an F-150....
