Do you let other trucks know when you spot a defect?

I no if u told me something was wrong with my truck I'd thank u... But then I might ask u to stop and help me fix it lol

 

Thats the exact reason why I don't use a CB.Not many use it professionally.But this thread makes me rethink it.Someday I may have a dot issue and somebody tells me on the cb.

 

all you can do is let them know it makes you a better person by doing so,dont lower yourself to their standards by replying to negative attitude.Going down the road I cant see the back side of my wagon so I appreciate the heads up.

 

Lot tell you to " DRIVE YOUR TRUCK AND I WILL DRIVE MINE " then you can wave at them 50 miles up the road as thery are sitting on the shoulder broke down.

 

I tell them on the cb, and if they don't reply and its a serious safety issue (smoking brakes/tires, all chains loose on a flatbed, etc) I'll pull up beside them and wave my CB mic at them and if its night time ill turn my cab light on and wave my mic at them, some guys may run with their CB off but alot of people still have them in their truck and If I see that something is going to possibly cause an accident Im going to do everything that I can to warn the driver about it...

 

I try to tell ppl. And I would want ppl to tell me too

 

if it is an obvious piece of junk...then no i dont bother...cuz it is gonna have TONS of stuff wrong and they obviously dont care......

 

Nah bro give up most know of this issues but don't care. Dont waste your time.

 

I've had to do the wave the microphone thing more than a few times too, but many now don't even have a radio.

But the ones that do and give me the "mind my own business" or other negative and bad attitude back, I always ask them if they would rather hear about it from another driver, or someone with a clipboard and a badge!
