    Just once, it would be nice to see a large scale crackdown on 4 wheelers. It's always a one sided attack. I know trucks are regulated by the FMCSA. But once they could intitiate a program to protect us instead of punish us.

    Why is the National District Attornies Association sponsoring?? Go get em boys and will run em through the ringer. Here's 1% of the fine money we already got. We'll get a good return on our investment.

    All this crap starts with one person's effort who seeks sponsors and grows from there. I bet the ATA plays a major role.

    Back in the old days if you planned attacks on motorist it was considered entrapment.

    Georgia has signs with pictures that say "Give trucks more room", but the idiots here think it a free pass to cut us off, it's gotten worse since the signs went up.

    saw a State Trooper stuck in the median about a week ago on I95 just north of Miami.. thought it was funny as heck seeing as how it pretty much flooded the highway out that morning.. it was raining all night, and inspector gadget figured he could drive across the medium.

    Drivers wouldn't have to follow that close if the trucks in front would stay out of the passing lane....:biggrin_25525: j/k

    or if cars didn't cut over infront of them into the 10sec gap they left between them and the vehicle in front.
