    Everyone is a bit different, I suppose. When parking, I'm never nervous any more. I am careful. If it's really tight, that just means I get out and look a few more times.

    The metal grate bridge, yes. I think the first time I crossed it, it was a single lane with traffic lights on either side. That wasn't nearly as worrying as last week when I met another semi coming across. We passed one another at maybe 10 MPH combined speed.

    And if you are being 'extra careful' to take the time for extra G.O.A.L.'s, I would term that as being nervous - to some degree. Maybe to a great degree.

    I was just stating the facts as I see them.
    The degree of nervousness was not considered, just the state of being so.

    And you should really look up the definition of the word.
    It applies to so much of what we do out here.
     
    Jeck Thanks this.

    There's a bridge like that not far from me in Philly called the Burlington Bristol bridge I don't know how two tractor trailers can pass each other on that bridge without knocking mirrors off.
