Pennsylvania Amish Buggies passing etiquette.

I've never been around the Amish but there's a large Mennonite population in my area. Some are farmers, Some are loggers. A lot of them have trucks.
I've worked with them for years and found them to be honest, industrious, straightforward in their business dealings, and having a great work ethic.

 

I tell you what....Driving RT20 in Indiana around Millersburg area at night is a site. All those buggies running at night with their LED lights dancing with the movement of the horse reminds me of bees with their buts on fire flying at night.

 

I have delivered several loads to different Amish business and enjoyed all my deliveries. One load was to a family farm that they formed metal for roofs. The whole male family members dad> youngest unloaded me. All the boys took off tarp and securement and cleaned up every thing for me I just watched. One time I delivered $)" steel beams to a shop the man was going to off load it with bobcat skid steer. He thought better of it when his but was in the air. He walked down the road a nd got a friend with another one and got the job done.

 

Don't forget the bikes!

 

Thats harsh. Not everyone is or has a perfect outlook on society as you do..i guess? I run 50% on 2 lane roads and i put up with buggies, carts , farm vehicles whatever. We live in a wonderful country with different ways of life. Have even used choice words when behind one of the aforementioned on a blind curve or hill. This is in pa and ohio. You ever think, if you really are a "truck driver" that more people dont like you either. So get over yourself.

 

They use phones all the time around my area, no sneaking. Some have a phone, but not in the house, they have a phone shack outside. That outside phone was around shippensburg, i think.

 

The car thing..there is one group that can only ride so far (miles) ..then they have to switch to another car-van. My dad told me about this. He is retired and hauls them around some. Guess you could call him a (Yoder toter).

 

How many on welfare and unemployment, or workers comp? I live around lots of them. I can't even think of one. There could be? They are human also, not perfect but i can say this with all honesty, never had a problem. One coon hunted behind my home and kinda bugged me. 1 am and the dogs must have got one up a tree. They, or most all will not steal your stuff.
