    I run the third lane through there every time, all the megas are holding up the two right lanes. Never gotten looked at twice.
    I got that you were only in the third lane. That officer just sounds like a prick.
    Tolls are (or used to be?) Way more expensive on 355.

    Dont you also have a scale on 80 that way?

    His comment wasn't about where you were, it was about what lane he drives in that area. So you read his comment wrong.

    uh huh.

    I do believe that his meaning was that YOUR lane was lane 2. The one you were in originally. When you claim the car tried to hit you and you swerved out of its way. Sudden movements like that in a big truck are a no-no.


    Seems like you're already burned out on the job. Your comments here show that you feel like you're being attacked, when that's not the case. I'm willing to bet that you had a chip on your shoulder when the cop came to your door as well. That never goes well, as you found out.

    Im burned out by my life, not my job.
    I treated the officer with respect and apologized at least 20 times.
    With a sir sandwich.
    Sir I'm sorry sir.

    Its why I'm OTR and not local. Home time stresses me, everything at home stresses me.
    Anything that risks this job stresses me.
    The only chip on my shoulder is the one where I'm not living up to the man my father was.
    And it causes me to obsess and beat myself up for weeks every time I make a mistake.

    And this traffic stop....I can't stop thinking about it.
    It keeps replaying and replaying in my mind.

    And its worse now. Every time i.... The ones I love at home suffer.

    And the worst part, I can't seem to shut it off.
