    thats a bad feeling. was sitting at a light one day and had sat there for a few minutes when bam, i thought oh hell, i rolled. i set brake and got out and a woman ran up and said oh i'm sorry, i hit you. i felt good along about this time.:yes2557: i looked and there was not even a mark on either of us, so i told her if she was alright with it i was too. but i knew i didn't roll, just couldn't convince myself very quick because we were all stopped.

    the next time it happens I'll have a good laugh ..hopefully. but it is strange why it happens. i wonder if it has something to do with equilibrium in the brain .

    definitely wakes you up. people probably think we're a bunch of kooks when we slam our brakes when we're already stopped. funny actually , now that i think about it !

    Just the other day I was in a double Left turn lane. and the truck to the right of me started thru the light while still read because the right arrow Green had come on but this truck was going left. I proceded to start going myself till my wife barked at me.....

    only sometimes. kidding. But I will tell you another phenomenon that happens.. and it's not just me that this happens to. Sometimes when I'll be sleeping in the sleeper , which isn't too often because I'm home a lot.... all of a sudden I'll kinda wake up only to feel the truck rolling forward !!! I look around for two seconds.. then jump up in a near panic and THROW open the curtain, only to see that I'm an insane mental case and the truck is still where I parked it. I'm convinced that it has something to do with the brain.
