BTW it doesn't bother me but it doesn't help me in any way so why do it? Who really cares how he drives?
Do you have accidents because of another drivers negligence? if so please explain...I really am here to learn... but you are just trying to prove you are better than everyone else... yes I am really not interested in that it serves no purpose!!!
all I ask is give me info that can help in different situations... no rhetoric about how a slow driver made something dangerous for you...
Peace my friend.... -

I'm not gonna begin to tell a 26 year veteran how to drive, so please don't take it this way. But IMO the 1st rule of being safe is , never try and out-drive your self , or your equipment/or conditions. Never let the situation control you....YOU stay in control of it, by driving at a speed that you are able to not only control your position in traffic, but one that you are able to maintain an eye on what is going on around you. That means, always try and leave yourself room to be PRO-active to any given situation...not RE-active.... that means sometimes slowing down is the answer, or moving into another lane. But always on the look-out for things to go south in a hurry....by driving as far ahead of your truck that you can see potential hazards/situations forming ahead of you , you lesson the % of you getting into a bad situation.....Not rocket science, just alittle patience, and good-ole common sense.
Almost anyone can physically "drive a semi" .....But its what is inside that head that counts.....A me, me first, I gotta go attitude, is one that is an accident in the making.tinytim, Dinomite, Ghost Ryder and 2 others Thank this. -
