    I have seen stickers on the dash of company trucks that read "Don't forget to fill out your log" and other safety decals like some one mentioned "Diesel Fuel Only" because I would bet money there was a driver somewhere filled his truck up with gas. Remember years ago you would see companies that painted yellow lines on trailer tires.

    Face it their are some idiots out their that have to have reminders everyday just like warnings on products we buy at the store. "Do not drink this because it will be harmful to your health" you know somebody drank the stuff and we needed warning labels.

    I think the following stickers need to be in some drivers trucks.

    1. Don't forget to pull up your pants.
    2. Don't forget to comb your hair.
    3. Don't forget to tie your shoes.

    I can't believe the number of people I have seen that need this sticker. Some times I don't know if that's the style they're going for, if they just woke up and didn't think they had bed head.

    That's why long hair isn't so bad. Smooth it out. Pull it back. Done!

    The 'man' wouldn't tell the company to put the sticker on the mirror if it wasn't important. All the really 'good' Drivers don't have to GOAL ever! The rest of us can take that reminder and just do it. GOAL and lose a few pounds doing it.
    I don't want anything on my mirrors that would distract.. maybe my goal stickers could 'fall' off. I'm going to GOAL anyhow..:biggrin_25525:

    HAHA! My Mother-in-law was picking up my niece at school, comes out to a school bus tail on her car! Insurance company didn't want to settle because her car is a 1993. When I heard about what happened, I said to mention GOAL. They settled with her for $1600! I'm still waiting for the steak dinner, or something. I got her daughter maybe that's enough...
    I'm a newbie btw :biggrin_25525:

    Did not think of using a goal sticker on my mirror. I just look at my crossover mirror and my flat mirrors when backing out. That's the easy part for me for backing out my truck or when I'm backing up to hook up a trailer. I never have a wreck and don't want to have a wreck. Always look carefully in your mirrors then back up. I don't know if you guys turn on your hazard lights on when backing up I do that to be caution and make sure everybody is out of the way, I don't feel like ran over somebody when backing up my truck. Do that do be more safer when backing out with a semi truck. Thank you everybody who will be safe on the road.
