    Port Newark, Nj... A few days ago I watch a transfer truck push a box truck up and almost over the concrete barricade in the express lanes of I78EB heading back to the port. Not really sure what happened other then there was a pickup involved and someone pushed over on someone else coming into the construction.

    Ran a container truck off the road and he almost hit a fence (wasn't my fault) had to drag my trailer across the curb to keep from loosing my hood to another container truck that didn't want to follow his line. Got a nasty look from a cop after he jumped out infront of me in his cruiser and came to a complete stop and then put his lights on. I gave him as much air horn as I could while trying to switch lanes.

    But the winner for the week is the mom that was texting and kept hitting breaks going up a grade so I passed, started coming down the other side with Jakes on and she was just riding my bumper and 70mph. An older couple obviously lost kept hitting brakes and looking for something and the speed difference was obvious, I waited for the car next to me to pass (had been there for a lil over a mile) and squeezed in to a tight spot to roll on by. Poor mom and her daughter were not prepare. They were boxed in, only had a shoulder to work with, and there was surely a 20mph speed difference. She jammed on the brakes and went right only to find a tire which strangly enough did no damage to the infinity she was in, passed the old couple, speed up passed me, gave me the finger then jumped infront of me, gave me a brake check and then sped off. I sware everything in this state north of 295 is highly overrated. I wont even start on the cb issue. Ya might as well turn it off until you get west of I287. All in all it's manageable. Today should be my last day playin around out her then dispatch will stretch me out again.

    Aurora IL... in the trailer yard at my receiver's for the night. Rocks... you'd appreciate this place. Huge, not too many trailers, only light traffic from the security gate to the shipping/receiving office.
