    I started driving milk truck a few weeks ago as a part time job until the spring when I start driving my own truck again. Well I have taken about 5 loads to the dairy before for this company, but this was the first day I actually ran a route to pick up milk. Well I am getting ready to take a really sharp right hand turn off of the highway. As I slow down I signal and check to make sure no one is coming from the other direction, and notice there is one car behind me but did not think much of it. I swing alittle into the other lane to make the turn and as I am turning I hear a crash. This dumb b!#&$ behind me runs right into my tandems as I am turning. Then she has the guts to jump out and start yelling at me! After I told her were to go, because she is the idiot who ran into me, she settled down alittle. At fist she said I pulled out infront of her, I told her, you were following me down the highway, how the hell could I have pulled out infront of you? Then she said that she did not see me, I said it's a 30,000lb truck with 20 lights on the back alone, how the hell did she not see me? The she said that she could not stop because the roads were slick. Anyways the cops came and pretty much said that it was all her fault, even though she changed her story every time she told it to try to get out of trouble. All it did to the truck was break the plastic cover on the hub, but her car was pretty messed up. So it was and interesting 1st time on a route.
