Sat in traffic for an hour near Vicksburg,MS there was a SUV rollover accident on the eastbound side, so why the westbound side was closed/so slow is beyond me, because there's at least 40 yards of grass in between each side. But while sitting there, I noticed a frontage road, and thought about getting off at the exit. My trainer instructed me not to, said it was just better to sit there and wait so I said ok. Then I found out why. Good ole CR England decides to take that Frontage Road...he went down it, then a few minutes later he comes backing up down that same road. Turns out that frontage road dead ends, lol. So in the future, when in doubt, just watch what CR England does, then go from there. The stupidity from their drivers never ceases to amaze me.

now that COULD have been me if not for my trainer, lol. glad it wasn't, cause that would have been embarrassing.
CR England does it again!

While bad mouthing this C.R.England driver you admit "that could have been me". What does all this have to say about you, since you would have gone down that frontage road with the England driver? Like they say, people in glass house should not throw stones.DoneYourWay, full speed, TractorTrailer and 11 others Thank this. -
Sooner or later, everyone gets themselves into a place they shouldn't. It's easy to do, even if one is paying attention. What counts is being able to get out of a difficult situation once you're in it. My hat's off to that England driver. From what I could tell in the video, he fixed his mistake without damage to his surroundings or equipment.
Quick, someone post that USA Truck video. I haven't seen it for a couple of days!Mev, pattyj, Emulsified and 8 others Thank this. -
Well that was 2 minutes and 23 seconds of well wasted time of my life.

That USA truck video is a classic, still hard to watch. I turned left into a dead end road once. There was no sign because at the end it was a close off fence. Still had to blind side back out the road. But we all made mistakes, I thought the truck entrance was on that road but turn out it was on the other side.
DriveItUSA and DoneYourWay Thank this. -

the day I consider a CR England driver a "colleague" is the day hell freezes over.
Thinking about doing something and actually doing it are two entirely different things.
But I still learned a valuable lesson by watching someone else and also that my trainer knows his stuff and has a lot of wisdom. -
