I had a time where the wind was very strong, a P/U truck was approaching from behind, I saw my drivers side rear tandems lift off the ground, and this lady in the passenger side saw the tandems lift, she had on Bright red Lip Stick, I mean you can see the red a mile away,LOL, as they passed by, she was leaning in the P/U truck towards the driver side with her mouth wide open, Looked like Bozo, She was pretty scared, I LMAO. But When the Tandems did come off the ground, I imediately slowed down, and used the Left lane and used the shoulder, to lean into the wind. Truck was empty. Got to my stop for a P/U, had them load the trailer heavy on the passenger side. So when going back to the Terminal the wind had little affect, Plus I got to use the right lane and part of the shoulder if needed to lean into the wind.

 

sounds like a fun carnival ride there wargames......NOT

 

You're lucky, my company would nail me to the wall with 'you weren't legally parked, had you been legally parked you wouldn't have been hit.' Which, we all know is b.s. but they'd pull that card.

Some days I wish I had gone to Watkins.

 

Would those days happen to be Fridays? (paydays) lol Just Kidding!
