Scared Myself A Little

Let's see, you're driving in a snow storm, wipers don't work, can barely see thru the windshield, but you think its ok to be using a cam to record all this, instead of giving your full attention to the job at hand, which would be operating your vehicle SAFELY? What were you thinking?!?!?!

 

that's when you need to have a rider or be a team driver.

 

Wasn't a camera it was my phone and I was texting partially too and tweeting about it.

 

LMFAO. Don't think that I didn't think about trying this because once I climbed up Laramie it got like 20 times worse

 

Tell ya what, monsoon season in NoAZ (northern Arizona) can bring some hair raising experiences. I've seen it come down so hard just north of Flag on 89 that the wipers couldn't even begin to keep up. Couldn't see for crap, and scared to stop for fear of getting run over. And this is in broad daylight, let alone at night.

You will keep more of your money if you keep on not having enough time. Voice of experience there. . .

Tell ya what kiddogo, sometimes 25 is too fast in those monsoonal rains.

OK, now HERE is a "REAL TRUCK DRIVER!"

 

At least Little America is a decent place to stop! Or it used to be anyway.

 

Yea I know that big don... Only was a smart ### comment ...

 

True story: I know a guy who was driving over Stevens Pass in WA in these conditions. Wipers went out. His buddies tied ropes to the wipers and see-sawed them back and forth through the windows! Not trucking though!

 

About the only thing I may have done different is hit the first off ramp to check the defrost.

Other that that.......... you are golden.

I have been scared plenty of times.

JB HUNT had the infinite wisdom not to have JAKE BRAKES on the trucks when I was with them. I had a few "come to Jesus" moments while hauling paper rolls going down long grades.
