Ok.....I'll probably catch Hell for this....but here goes....
Why do you reefer jockeys drive like the load should have been there yesterday?
Twice today I got cut-off and "brake-checked" in the rain....running S/B on I-5....
The first time was about 2 miles N/O of Dunsmuir coop....The second at Maxwell....The one in Maxwell...the driver came close enough to "polish" my bumper......
It's bad enough that the Four-wheelers do this......
And no....I wasn't running like a "hyper-miler".....I was running 62 mph.......
Oh....one more thing.....this tends to be company drivers.....Most O/O reefer tuggers tend to drive sanely.....

Because the darn DC loaded the reefer late and over loaded so we had to put it back in the dock, get pallets taken off and now we're running late to a store that's got a darn curfew due to the idiots that built their housed behind the store and then filed a petition with the city.
Anymore questions? Okay now I've got one: how come you skateboarders can't learn to signal and get good clearance before pulling over in front of me and then squatting on your brakes like some old lady?
It's not like I'm running fast heck anyone can pass me. -
Nana...I don't worry about SWIFT rigs........They "hyper-mile".....
I am a good O/O Skateboarder....I use my signals......When you buy a rig that costs as much as a house....You use every bit of it........believe me.... -
I was just funning with ya.

I'm in Baldwin Park for the night. I swear I think you people that live in CA should get combat pay. Crazy people drive here. -
I warned you about Baldwin park long ago.....You a sucker for abuse?.....
-
Baldwin Park is fine! I never have a problem here.....they love me here. Heck the gangbangers standing on the corner wave to me when I pull in. And over at farmerboys they give me free fries.
(actually I had this guy who works here tell me if I have any problems to call him and his "boys" will take care of it. now THAT worried me a bit.) -
i was pretty sure it wasnt nana blowing by you on the road---she might want to --but.............
Texas-Nana Thanks this. -
Ya think????????????????? I'm a turtle. I go slow but I get there. *w*

used to drivers waited til they saw that flash of light in their mirrors before they looked and then if clear they came back over. Then all the new drivers began to complain about the light blinding them so most drivers,me included, quit flashing their lights. Now it is a crap shoot whether that driver that just passed you can tell how far back you are.

I dont change lanes back to the right lane, after I pass, until a four wheeler decides to pass on the right, then I signal and ease over as they use the breakdown lane as a travel while flipping the bird lane. LOL. I dont do that(i dont start driving again until next week), nor have I done that, but, that is a fairly popular "trick" amongst drivers....
