    I was T-boned on my bike as a kid at a stop sign.

    The guy was very apologetic - his flip flop got caught under the accelerator and couldn’t get to the brake.

    That ignore button is a handy device when it comes to dealing with those that just wanna start trouble.
    History has shown most of these people eventually hang themselves and get banned .

    Would be impossible on my truck to do. Like I said, wear only that which you deem safe for driving in practice with your equipment.

    Would you say that requires a pilot car?
    And what about an over weight permit?
    Also do you think my single axel with a series 60 would haul that up fancy gap? Or am I just dreaming?

    Lol! You didn't read the second half of my post. Also, I unload everywhere they will let me, but not always easy pulling a dry van. If you are insinuating that pulling flatbed is superior then I'll ask you about that when you're deck is covered with ice and it's sleeting cats and dogs. Otherwise, I'm not standing there watching. I'm in the truck booking loads, invoicing customers, making billions. :D

    Wait, at first it was just Volvos. Then it became white Volvos. Now it's the white Volvo mafia. I can't keep up. I'm a Southern boy who owns lots of boots but I don't wear them in the truck.....and my Volvo isn't white.

    This is why as truck drivers we can't band together & fight for a better treatment for the things that we do . Another man is worried about what another man is wearing . Pretty much what everyone has been saying there is a lot more important issues to deal with than yoga pants & flip flops
