    There's a special place south....way down south, if you get my drift....for this perp.

    Prayers to the family and friends. I swear I don't think truckstop parking lots were this dangerous ten years ago.

    People need to slow down in truck stops, and in this winter take a few minutes to clean your mirrors and windshiels. I don't see how some people can see out of there windows and mirrors with all of the road salt on them.

    I don't know about most of you, but when im walking through a truck stop parking lot, my head is on a swivel. I don't trust any of these idiots that have there phones up to there ear or texting driving through the parking lots.

    My thoughts and prayers are with the three drivers and there famlies that have been run over in truck stops in the last few months.
     
    katwoman, rocknroll nik and 48Packard Thank this.
