Just when ya think ya seen everything...

I park in the back row all the time and really haven't had any problems.
If anyone comes up to the truck I don't want around the truck, I just throw them the look from hell and they go away. (I've been married three times, I'm pretty good at it!)

 

reminds me of the POE in Evanston WY. If you get red lighted and go in, notice that on the way out, you have to do a long type of Uturn in order to get out of the facility. As you take that long left turn, you'll notice a ton of pee bottles over there. Just nasty.

 

Everyone understands that you are a bit clueless about trucking, let's alliviate an inaccuracy about the Evanston POE on I-80..... Everyone one goes in to the POE to declare their load.... Even many pre-pass trucks also............

 

How much of a 'born in a barn' person does one have to be to just drop off pee bottles and drive on?! Do they really care that they are ruining it for the whole industry? How many off/on ramps are closed to us (No Parking) just because of this fact? Most places dont really mind big trucks parked off of ramps (not blocking them) but its the trash that they mind! Its got to be younger drvrs doing this (?)

 

...what makes you think that? I've yet to leave a pee bottle on the side of the road. It has nothing to do with age, it has to do with the personality of these worthless pieces of trash that leave these on the side of the road, rest areas, even in the middle of the parking spots.

 

i been wondering the same thing for years

 

I don't think age has anything to do with it. But I think truckers might not be the sole culprits. I'm sure there are other drivers out there who are "recycling" plastic bottles that way!

 

Maybe or maybe not...I see a lot of younger drivers out there (usually guys!) that can barely take care of themselves....'Momma didnt teach them right, ' as they say! And, anybody who has raised teenagers knows that 'youth' is generally lazy if not taught otherwise! Not saying ALL are, cause I wasnt--but I was taught not to be lazy and slovenly!! Dont take the easy way out, but 'Do it Right!!'

But also see a lot of older drivers still flicking cigarette butts out the window during each state's dry seasons---lots of median and shoulder fires!!
