a truck will stop from 60mph in 100yrds, it's been done before.. anyone who has slide 100yrds was going down a grade.
the only 100yrd skid marks i ever see are the ones from brake failures and drivers dragging the trailers down the interstate with the tires smoking.. no one has ever presented to me any evidence that a truck with 90psi applied to the brakes will continue to travel for 100yrds.

Ok whatever super trucker. I aint gonna "prove it" to you by showing you lol. Believe what you want but Im afraid for the day you find out the hard way. Some folks know it all.
silenteagle Thanks this. -
He makes a hell of a lot more sense than you do.
I drive using the Smith system also. It is a lot less stressful than trying to drive fast through heavy traffic . If I hold you up for a short while I'm going 58-60 in the middle lane, get over it. I will not drive in the right lane, dealing with all the cars, that don't know how to merge. I have seen your kind, rolling two feet behind a car. Your probably the type I laugh at, while your flipping me off for going 60 in a 55 mpg construction zone.silenteagle and NutDriver Thank this. -
As for the rest of your post...silenteagle Thanks this. -
Sorry if i went off on the wrong person, but some of the supertrucker comments on here, are ridiculous.

"Bandit" a la Convoy
Not long ago I was on I-5, well maybe it was one-oh-one.
But it was head-to-toe in the granny lane and I was hauling about twenty-five ton.
When a little roller skate with a bright red wrapper, tries to put the hammer down,
He cuts me off and he hits the brakes and I nearly mow him down.
Now you aught to give rigs one car length for every 10 miles per hour,
We need braking room with 18 wheels and 600 ponies of power.
If you cut us off or you ride our tail you'll surely be pressing yer luck,
You see Smokey is a friend of mine, and the ticket is a hundred, one bucks.
Well my ride along, "the man in blue" calls ahead to mama bear,
And that little red rover, he's now pulled over, spending money like a millionaire.
Now a hundred one bucks ain't no chicken feed, but in truth it could be worse,
It's a better price to pay than havin' to ride home in a hearse.
So when you find yourself on the road with trucks, be sure to give us plenty of room,
Cause extra patrols are on now, and you might meet a bear real soon, ten-four...silenteagle Thanks this. -
