    This is why all these big companies have high safety procedures and driver facing cameras cause the term "professional driver" is somewhere out there blindfolded to the steering wheel as well... truck drivers are truck drivers worst enemy..

    This generation is really something else.They eat tide pods,snort condoms,eat a spoon full of cinnamon the list goes on and on.This is what happens when parents are being friends with their kids instead of being parents.

    A lot of this bizarre behavior we see today is driven by "the internet" and social media, and the instant recognition it can yield, for better or for worse. But our education systems are basically teaching that no matter what you do and how bad you fail, you can claim victim status and be forgiven and propped up by society. This is only exasperating the problem

    people want to be famous, it was designed that way in music, sports and entertainment to draw in people to use as puppets to sell products. with social media people crave that acceptance, they want to be like the puppets

    The hell of it is. If I read the story correctly, there was a passenger in the vehicle presumably filming this act. So that makes 2 out of 2 who are complete morons. How are we supposed to respond to this?

    Yeah maybe but at least in my time we were “original” and not copying others or mimicking crap we saw in a bad movie. And we couldn’t care less about how many “likes or shares” we got
     
    Bud A. and allniter Thank this.
