    Have you not opened your eyes in the last decade? Of course drivers make the biggest mess. I've watched drivers do it.

    Do 4 wheelers make a mess too? Sure, but it's minor compared to 4 wheelers. Heck go look at any "travel center" Tons more trash out back with the trucks than up front with the 4 wheelers.

    Lots of drivers leave gallon size containers of apple juice on the roads for in case someone wants it.

    No, you’ve watched PIGS do that.

    Don’t paint us all with that broad brush.

    On the on/off ramps yes. Local guys probly do it too, but 99% of the guys parking on the ramps are otr. Im not labeling all the otr guys, but their the ones on the ramps most of the time. Its not that hard to put your trash in a plastic grocery bag and throw it away when you fuel. Some just dont care cuz they dont have to see their mess everyday, out of sight, out of mind.

    Permission ?

    It’s your lane?

    Years ago i was at t/a in west knoxville. Some guy about to leave thinks he can decide who will get “his” spot when he pulls out.

    He decided to “give” it to another driver. I said i wanted it.

    The other driver positioned himself so he could back in as soon as the other guy pulled out.

    It was night, i positioned myself w/lights off, so i could pull straight in behind the guy as he pulled out.

    I was 2 feet off his icc bar as he pulled out. He never saw me back there.

    I got the spot.... the last one there. I loved it, it was like stealing candy from 2 swift drivers. ;-)

    They were swearing over the radio for 5 minutes.
