I don't mind people riding my tail, they can stay back there all day. Id rather them be tailgating me on a interstate than speeding up and slowing down continuously in front of me. A lot of times if there is debris laying in the road I will get as close to it as I can and the car behind me can't see it until it is too late. Ive seen people behind me hit all sorts of things laying in the road because they are so close to my trailer they cant see nothing.
If a car is merging over on a on-ramp, I will get over if possible. But I really hate when you move over for someone, then they want to ride the same speed as you, now Im stuck in the left lane and everybody that comes up behind me gets P'ed off. A lot of times I just stay in right lane, I have made so many people mad for not getting over for them.
Over the years my patience for stupidity has gotten so much better, some of that is probably maturity.Last edited by a moderator: Dec 11, 2010

I see that all the time!

I take on the road in my truck what I learned on my motorcycle. Everyone is out to kill me, and most of them are stupid enough to believe that it will be me that gets mangled if there is a "coming-together", not them. Ah, well. Press on regardless.
TREE and Buffalo Chip Thank this. -
I don't think there has been a day where a car has speeded up to get around me and slammed on their brakes to make the next road!
I mean if they just got behind me they caould take that next right 1 second later without makeing me poop my pants!
Even when i drive a 4 wheeler somebody slams in front of me only to go a lot slower than i was to begin with!

Well. It makes me mad when some guy with a potbelly, decides to drive naked in El Paso, pulls up beside me and then honks for my attention.
Really. What the heck is going on? Who told this man that wearing nothing but a tie and his shoes was a good thing????
If I wanted to see a man other than my husband naked.....I can guarantee you that it wouldn't be Mr. Potbelliedpsycho-combover in his aging compact car.
Why do these people keep wanting to show me their peepeeman? I'm seriously thinking about actually carrying a big stick and everytime some fool hangs his out I'm going to smack it so hard with that stick he'll think he's a girl.outerspacehillbilly, GuysLady and TREE Thank this. -
That would be quite disturbing
-
Agreed, Funny cuz 9 times out of 10 they had to speed up to get passed you.

Nana I think you need to get some "psycho repellant spray" and spray yourself and your truck down down a daily basis!
Texas-Nana Thanks this. -
What really gets me is the 4wheelers that some how miss the 4wheeler parking in a rest area, then decide it would be a good idea to go thru the truck area the WRONG WAY
. I almost nailed a van full of em coming up the off ramp one day
Texas-Nana Thanks this.
