I want to thank our cousins in the 4-wheelers for being aware of what trucks need to do on the road.
Thank you for flashing me over and giving me room to change lanes. And thank you for not using your high-beams for this purpose.
Thank you for merging properly, accelerating or decelerating as necessary when you see my 70 feet of truck boxed into the right-hand lane.
Thank you for not cutting in front of me and dynamiting your brakes 100 feet from a stop-and-go light.
Thank you for realizing that if you miss your offramp you can always take the next one, and that it's not a good idea to cut across three or four lanes of traffic to make an exit.
Thank you for not passing on the right side of my truck, and for staying out of my blindspots.
Thank you for not tailgating my truck. If one of our less-observant cousins cuts in front of me and dynamites their brakes, I know that you will not be killed ramming your car under my trailer.
In a nutshell, thanks for sharing the road! I do my best to look for for you, and your coorperation is greatly appreciated.![]()
Thank you, Cousin!

Right on Girlfriend!

Most 4-wheelers are clueless to those situations, and how to manage them.
It would be nice to put your Post in every Editorial section of every newspaper across the country. Maybe it would help them think.
Good Post! -
I gotta be first. People act like 10 year old kids when they drive. They have no comprehension of common courtesy . All they care about is being the first one to the next red light. Stupid and senseless. If the public drove more like truckers do, there would be a lot less traffic jams and accidents. Things would run much smoother. But nobody cares. That's america. That's the way they want it. They want problems because it creates news. They want traffic jams because it gives news reporters job security. It will never get better in this country. The cops are corrupt , not all of them, but many of them are actually worse than the 4 wheelers. What a joke.

Is that sarcasm I smell??
<sniff, sniff>
Yeah, that's definitely sarcasm. My favorite! -
I love the idiots that fly by you and get in front of you so they can jam on there brakes to get off the next exit, when nobody is behind you to begin with.

shopping area when you're trying to back into a dock like at a supermarket, etc. Unbelieveable how impatient grown-ups are. If I'm in my 4 wheeler and see a truck trying to dock, why the hell would I go behind the truck? What a bunch of stupid idiots . Some idiot got right up on my tractor tandems as I was jacking it around . I saw him just in time before I would've flattened his stupid ###. How can anyone be that discourteous as not to even let a truck back up? Happens everyday, everywhere. Unbelieveable.

That is God's way of getting ####### out of the gene pool, and, what did you do? Let them escape. You shouldn't interfere with God's plans.

palerdr, you have a calling on your life...lol

Hi guys, thanks for the additions. Actually my original intent was not sarcasm, and was aimed at those of our four-wheeled cousins that actually do these things. But sarcasm for the other 99% works too.

I'll show 'em just how much I like them if they want to get that close to me.
