    In other words I don't know how to unwind. What a shame. There are a variety of hobbies and activities you might get into that will get you unwound in a hour. he he.

    Get up on 94 in Montana at the right time of day in the summer ... you'll be lucky if your 2 gallons of washer fluid lasts a 100 miles.

    Try the area around Klamath lake in Oregon at the right time of year. The bugs don't even come off with the wipers, it's pull over every five miles and break out the shovel.

    Not to knock the op, but driving when other cars on going off into ditches and spinning out, the driver should not be boasting but warning others not to drive in bad weather - no load is worth a life and how do enjoy life if you are in a bad accident.

    Sorry to be a negative nancy but there is a time when you say screw it, I'm staying put and this is a time when he should have.

    If I stayed home every time a car spun out I'd never work in the winter.

    Yeah, but he said he “saw no less than 50” just that day. And 5 right in front of him. That’s extreme enough to make me at least consider shutting down.

    Now, there is always the possibility that those numbers were a ‘slight’ exaggeration. Lol. Not that truckers ever exaggerate, but …
     
    Grubby and midnightlost Thank this.
