What bothers you the most??

Hey I resemble that remark!

 

Like I always have said " Give them a day cab and an exit number and the think they are a truck driver." Maybe I have driven in the northeast to long.

 

And why is speeding moving vans on the list? Sorry daycab drivers, That didnt bunch my undies. So unless you fit in my generalized statement, my remarks should leave you fairly unscathed. To help explain further, lane changes with no signal, If your truck is governed at 66, dont try to pass a truck governed at 65 on a 2 lane highway, Just because you drive the same road every day at the same time it doesnt mean every other driver does and it doesnt make you "better" when you block off the exit lane in advance, And no it is mostly white daycabs.

 

Phew, then its not me you're mad at!

 

gee most of my boys in day cabs have been driving trucks longer than you have been alive...


anyway - generalizations are cool...

 

the Rv'ers tend to get up under my rug....A lot of them simply don't know how to handle a pull behind camper....They want to get in front of you ......and then......slow down and refuse to let you overtake them....

 

I thought for sure someone would have said a log truck by now...

 

Concrete mixers dont bother me because I drove one for 4 summers and know why they are so slow. I just dont understand why they have to be the most under powered sacks of crap on the road. Most are 330 hp or less. ( some Ive seen as low as 240! ) I know they use small engines to save weight ( L10, M11 Cummins, c10 cat. e7 Mack etc. ) But some of these engines can be turned to 425 to 460 hp. Most I drove were 285 and 300 L10s and 300 macks. The Macks were OK but the L10s were sickly at best.

 

Log trucks?..Heck, these guys haul butt round here once they get up to speed! I gotta lot of respect for them as that takes a bit of nerve and talent! (to be successful anyway)

 

School buses on the highway,they run slow and own the middle lane and there are usually several of them in a row.My day cab is silver.10gph was 9yrs old when I started at this company,not even born when I started driving truck.
