    Good job on coming up on Three million miles but you are willing to brake check someone and throw that away just so they have to pee before the truck rolls again?

  3. when you warn somebody on a CB once or twice about it and they mouth off back you and get smart with you that's what you end up with.. and having a RV camera setup that I have because being an active YouTuber is the fact that I have a camera position right towards the back so somebody tailgates me and I asked you nicely to back off and you want a mouth off and get smart with me then f you hit me I really don't care.. just be ready for the consequences.
    I don't do it all the time only one I tell you nicely the back off and you choose to mouth off at me that's what you're going to get in return and I really don't care three second rule when your safety department asked for did you have a 3-second following distance I've been half of these people don't even know what a 3-second following distance is their loss not mine... properly train you won't have this kind of nonsense.
    but as far as simply sending a video to your company you better believe I will.. I like to thank them for hiring you and keeping a driver shortage away.
    show yes I will brake check you if I tell you the back off and you continue to be a little smart

    Those sound like some pretty safe habits there........make up your mind dude. One minute it's anything to defend my three million miles...the next it's #### it...this guy's a jerk so I'mma brake check him and cause an accident......
     
    MartinFromBC Thanks this.
  5. I won't throw it away if they don't know what the two-second rule is that's their own problem. they don't know why I had to panic stop could have been a deer ran out in front of me bottom line when the cop comes up and says why were you right on top of his bumper see if you had a proper two second rule you wouldn't have to worry if somebody at the panic stop you would be able to stop too.. that's where the security camera setup comes in handy..
    and again if you read further into the post I don't do it all the time it's only when you decide to play games after I give you a warning to backoff.
    if they want to be a part of the problem and not a part of the solution then me and many others will dispatch and take care of the problem 1 truck at a time

    Two seconds? That never enough but whatever. What about when a passing truck catches you having a dick measuring contest with this guy and you get hit because you are both being children? I know you said you don't so it all the time but you should NEVER do it ..EVER...that's steering wheel holder ########...you know the thing you like to throw out there. Can't take a guy being a dick on the cb? Turn it off then...... You know what I do when someone is riding closer than I would like behind me. I just ease off the throttle and slow it down a lil bit at a time until they pass me....they are the one in a hurry. Try it sometime, you won't get your blood pressure up, you won't cause an accident brake checking someone, and you won't get your feelings hurt on the cb. It might cost you some of that YouTube money tho....I don't know about that since I get paid to drive a truck...not make videos.
