Those have been illegal for decades now. I know you cannot figure it out so i will give you a clue, how about you will not have control of your truck if something goes bad and you are driving down the road just hanging on to that little ball like i see alot of drivers doing. If you need that to back up a truck, i would suggest that you quit driving. After driving for 32yrs. i do not need anymore unsafe drivers next to me. What is stupid is that you recieved a ticket and probably have'nt learned anything from it. I hope that you did learn something and start driving more safely out here and be more responsible in doing so. Have a safe day.

I like this guy. Right to the point, letting them know this is unaceptable. Well said. Now if any new drivers dont like the way this man said it. Too bad. He`s exactly right.Sapper Daddy87 and mtnMoma Thank this.

I've always heard "suicide knob"
Intothesunset Thanks this. -
my first truck I owned had armstrong steering and I drove in Chicago on a daily basis , never needed that pansy knob, and when I worked for overnite , my tandem mack was manual also and I did a city peddle job , no knob there either , I used to dock about 90 times a day and drive in the old down town areas , you just learn to keep it rolling a little to make it steer easier . learn to drive with your palm and get the #### seat off the floor too .
Intothesunset and Ops85 Thank this.
