    I'm sure they are not reading this forum but I would like to announce that I will be posting moronic truck driver antics in the mountain Parks to YouTube. My dashcams will be especially focused on lumber truck drivers who speed in the Parks and pass me on double solid lines. I encourage everyone to warm up their dashcams and get dangerous truck drivers charged with dangerous driving. It's a park, not a race track. Let the filming begin.

    Honestly, anyone pulling a tandem van/reefer has now been labelled as a horrible driver. For every good one there are 1000 horrible ones.

    Don't bother wasting your time. It's not worth it. If people want to go around just let them and make it easier for them. I do it all the time. Can't say I haven't passed people in the park either when I'm empty.

    Someone actually told me on the radio the other day to "put it in gear" as I was slamming gears after being stopped at a red light. I told him to become a man and pull some real weight and become a real trucker and he wanted me to pull over, i guess he wanted to fight?

    lol.

    Gotta start watching out for those darn tourists! They are out roaming and they are STUPID!!!! Add in all the construction work going on in Jasper with clueless tourists and impatient drivers and I think we're gonna see some major wrecks there this summer.
