It's Understandable Why There Is Violence At Truck Stops

It’s not something I hope for, and even if it does, hopefully just seeing it by the side will cause the ####roach to go scurrying back into his bunk, big difference between telling someone to go #### themselves and coming out with a hammer, attitude also plays a role to, some guys just wake up and want everyone else to be as miserable as they are

 

I have to add something.

A few years back I got a call from a driver who had three flat tires. He was parked resting, and he did a pre-trip and then pulled out. He heard a thud and the truck felt like it had flat tires, which it did, one steer, one inner drive tire and one trailer tire. His neighbor for the night was running his truck, and reefer and the truck's fan ran all night long. Someone I bet wasn't happy and did something to the truck, so it is assumed he used what the tire tech found - Caltrops were embedded in the flat tires, there were five total found, and one of the tires had its stuck to the sidewall the other was just laying right under the truck in front of the rear drives. The cops were called and the truck was identified.

Now if you don't know what these are, here is a picture.

 

Oh boy…

I hope it doesn’t get much deeper.

 

That’s intent for sure. Beyond old fashion way of dealing with it. If found the law should throw the book at them and make them do hard labor to repay what the costs are.

 

People nowadays have no regard for consequence. Need some butt whippings. One of two ways people ever learn. That and money loss.
I learned as a kid stupid hurt. Got my butt whipped. In school I had nuns, you guessed it butt got whipped for doing stupid. Everything has a price.

 

someone Famous has said many times.....make America great again"

i say..."make punishment GREAT again"

 

Hard to argue with that. It worked before. Now days time out in the corner. Or go to your room. Just don’t seem to be working.

 

How did he do a pre-trip but not catch any of this?

 

Easy thump the tires. Instead of using a pressure gauge.

 

I can’t agree with a driver doing that because someone’s running a reefer. That man is just trying to make a living like everyone else. These types of tactics should be reserved for those who literally and I mean literally go out of their way to piss other drivers off and anre only thinking for themselves. People park in the fuel island and go take a shower for example. People who know you’re behind them waiting and don’t care will sit there and finish their lunch for 20 minutes. Stuff like that. I drive a reefer, compared to most reefers, The ones in our company are quite quiet and smooth sounding. They actually put me to sleep. I always try and park next to other reefer trucks or at the very back of truckstops. Or most cases I don’t use truckstops at all to do my brake. But there are times when I’ve got to pull in next to the only open spot and park.
