    Did you know that lemmings don't jump off of cliffs and we all think they do because of that Disney film scene?

    I tend to squelch out most of the noise you post on here, but this needs addressed.

    If you're not making a best effort to maintain lane position, NO MATTER HOW CRAPPY THE CONDITIONS, you don't belong on the road!
    :mad::mad::mad:
    Guys like you run people off the road everyday because you're not paying attention to what's coming up behind you and your erratic lane positioning catches other traffic off guard and unprepared for the squeeze you're fixing to put on them.

    Well I guess it's a good thing your not in charge of who belongs on the road. Or where they drive on the road.

    You sir are a little bit of a silly sprouting off. Where in this topic have I said specifically run people off the road. You should note specifically that the cars were in their own lane as well close to or on the right hand lane marker.

    The last thing I desire is to hit people in winter weather too much trouble as far as I am concerned. If you were a cat, I would need to get the mouse toy to have you chase and burn off some of that excess energy and passion over something I do not do.

    In your case there is a awful lot of noise in your post. You and I are too far apart on this subject to bother continuing this path. Ive been good. Others have talked about staying in the pathway made by other people and out of the drifts on the sides particularly the left in this video that risks grabbing your trailer and spinning you into many of those cars. Missouri I 44 comes to mind.

    That's quite enough I think. If you get that far out of shape over something as ... mild as this little bit of snow or a comment about where to put a semi in it, it's your truck, your responsibility to be safe and not run people off the road. Therefore your noise about all that does not apply.

    I'm sorry, I missed your contribution, where was it? You must be a troll.
    My contribution was pointing out how ridiculous you sound by thinking you have a say over who drives and who doesn't.

    I saw that baseball coming from left field and wondered, "Why is it getting so big so quickly?"

    Then it hit me.

    It's safer to drive on snow and ice if you don't have panties on.

    Do you have scientific proof of that?
