    By the time you realize what happened, the car would be way in front of you, they accelerate a bit faster than a truck.

    I'd call the police and tell them the guy pulled beside me with his pants down to his knees & was waving to me.

    You have to watch them, protect them and think about their intention that mean you can't hit them under any circumstances......stay far from them if you think they are going to shoot you call the police.....
     
    mje and Rick_C Thank this.

    Chances are, if they shot at you. Then you run them off the road. I'd bet they would throw you in jail. They would label the shooter as a victim of society and let them go. Want to make a bet on that scenario?......lol

    You have to because if you hit them they will throw you to jail and book you with all kinda stupid stuff like the other guy say,,,, I think they should treat truck drivers better than that, the job is stress plus you get attitude from the shipper, receiver and everything else.
     
    mje Thanks this.
