You think someone is going to call in if you merge without a signal? Or look at your phone? Or adjust your radio? Or grab your mic to speak on the CB? Highly doubtful. I never do more than 2 or 3 over the limit anywhere. Regardless of it being a CZ or not. Truck isn't governed either. I sent a text once. Nobody around and almost hit a deer in the process. Figured someone was trying to tell me something. And I have patience. Therefore I have never felt the need to cut someone off. If I feel the need to do whatever inside my truck that will take my attention off the road, I make #### sure there isn't anyone around me when I do it. It's common sense. Either you have it or you don't. I do. If these are all things you do regularly, great! We'll be reading about you in the papers. But don't sit there and point fingers at me when you have absolutely no idea of the way I conduct my business. Nobody here is pointing fingers at anyone unless they have seen first hand somebody doing something stupid. If you want to call in on me, follow me around until you find a reason. I'll warn you though. You're gonna go through several sets of tires before you start dialing numbers.gentleroger, cnsper and 77smartin Thank this. -
At times I've taken the left lane myself and slowed a bit to let it pass, when I keep the that cushion of space other trucks gotta take it. I mean not just one but whatever fits while a different driver rides the tail.
To me pile up material, I'll grab an exit and try it again. -
Right.... So tailgating is bad, while speeding, going too slow, improper lame changes and texting isn't. I don't understand your logic.
-
So that's you eh

I'm not a snitch, as I'd be a hypocrite if I was. I am human, and therefore not perfect. You're not perfect either.
What ever happened to talking to drivers on the cb or face to face when you have a issue with something they did? Or are you too scared to confront someone? -
Never know when the other person has a gun and shoots for the fun of it. -
And no, I don't tailgate. I'm I a wide open truck and will pass you as soon as the opportunity presents itself.
-
You don't call anyone? -
And here we go with the 'what if' scenarios.
*rolling eyes*
What part of "I am not a snitch" did you not understand?
Also, as I said before, CB's exist for a reason. Use them.
