    If it was true that the guy had a stroke then I feel bad for him... that's a hard hit though for a stroke..

    I think the only thing stroking was his trailer on the other two.

    Or he might have been stroking, which explains the poor driving... one-handed. o_O

    So I take it you're not going to be putting one on your personal vehicle anytime soon? I was at the supermarket the other night and saw a woman backing out of a spot with one on her SUV. Had to laugh

    You don't need a back up beeper at job site. Everybody knows flatbed drivers don't back up.

    That Piggly Wiggly clip is way better than anybody could expect it to be.
    I thought Piggly Wiggly went extinct 30 years ago.

    Lol true story. I pulled over today at a designated break inspection area and was annoyed that somebody’s beeper was just going on an and on. There was no reason to back up! So I finally looked around to see who it was... It was me. I had put it in reverse and set brakes by accident. :)
