    The idiot driver goes splat because the driver was not smart enough to go out the right side?

    Evolution in progress? Survival of the fittest and smartest?

    You can't fix stupid but they do make laws (move over), rules, warning labels, big red orange warning stickers and on and on to protect them. And then they have kids and we more and more of them. Then we start threads titled "How dumb can truck drivers be" and the like. HAHAHAHA

    There is no reason to have to take a 30 on the shoulder. That’s just bad planning.

    They're conserving ELD minutes and fuel. They can't back. They're tired of getting hassled and threatened when breaking at the pumps. Yes, there are reasons. Stupid reasons, but reasons nonetheless

    Around Atlanta it's common practice.

    That’s just plain stupid. Especially in an area that’s so incredibly busy.
