My husband has only been driving for 10 months, been given many a 1 finger salutes lol
Y'all need a sign on the back of your trucks reading
"Don't like my truck? STOP buying ####"
People out there not remembering or having the common sense to realize y'all can't stop on a dime,
pulling out in front of trucks and putting on the brakes to be mean.
Since my husband started driving we didn't realize how much BS and abuse you all deal with.
But those same arrogant 4 wheeler don't remember just about everything if not EVERYTHING they owned
was transported on a TRUCK duh!!!!
Been pissing people off in my own town. Now if I see a semi trying to pull out of a business and there is no on coming traffic I will slow down and stop and let the trucker out onto the road. I get waves and big smiles. I know they appreciate it. 4 wheelers are so ..........can think of many words but won't type them lol
God Bless all of you and keep you safe each and every day.
How do you all do it!!! No appreciation

Lol Only truckers will truly understand another trucker. But beware if it's a car or god forbid if it's a jacked up Chevy in your way. You better give them as much room as they need. Cause we all know 4 wheelers need more room than 18 wheels It's a fact
bottomdumpin, White_Knuckle_Newbie, BigRedNY and 3 others Thank this. -
Eh, this is just a gut feeling of mine; no way to ever prove it. But I'd wager close to half the 4 wheeler stunts are pulled by people who currently do, or have in the past, driven a class 8 truck for a living. Mostly because truckers pull the same stunts in their big trucks. Very little respect for each other anymore.

Post that on your Facebook page. See how,many 4wheelers ##### and complain on your post.
It's sad.....jammer910Z Thanks this. -
Remember, when they hold up only one finger - no matter WHICH finger- that means 'you're number one'!
Mictrucking and horsethief Thank this. -
Sad isn't it Longarm. And sadly so very true.
I always tried to be respectful of truckers but now seeing what my husband has seem, out up with and dealt with these 10 months I now try to go out of my way to be respectful.
I've also had the experience of driving a 7 horse, horse trailer, I think 30 some odd feet.
Have to slow sooner, easier, take curves easier and all when you have 7 other peoples expensive horses standing up in the back.
So although I haven't a clue about driving the big rigs I have a little bit of an idea from my horse trailer days and my husbands 10 months of being a driver.

Boobie flashes help you get over it!
Mictrucking, EZ Money and ramblingman Thank this. -
You're so naughty lol

After awhile you kind of develop a 6th sense for idiot drivers. You can just feel when someone's about to do something stupid. Not always, of course, but a lot of times.
thejackal, jammer910Z, finbyrd and 5 others Thank this. -
Once you ve been out here for awhile, you pretty much know what s about to happen. Some of these 4 wheelers see on TV about how they can get big money from a truck accident from a lawyer, and will do anything for money if it means a suicide mission.
bottomdumpin Thanks this.
