If you're heavy for gods sake done try and pass going up a bunch of hills. Its unnecary leap frog. Just wait back till you're in the clear.
Fold_Moiler and 1278PA Thank this. -
Years ago, when we saw a vehicle on the shoulder of the road, we would automatically move left. Morons didnt and so now, it is a law. With hefty fines. If you are looking for them, you can avoid bad mishaps. So, how is it an "opportunity"?
Some of you arent satisfied with being a statistic...with getting a job and holding a steering wheel. Some of you dont wake up in the morning wanting to be average. Some of you actually take pride in your craft and are good at what you do. So, I'm going to tell you a secret: Hospitality is the very first step on the path to greatness. Want to be great? Hospitality is how you start. It's such a small minor thing to share the road...to back off the throttle 1-2 mph and allow someone an easier, SAFER pass. So seemingly insignificant...
...but if it is so insignificant, why do so many act like butt holes when they get behind the wheel? And have you noticed that the very same people that are butts behind the wheel are the very same people that hate their jobs and hate their lives? If trucking is what you make it, why are so many of you so unhappy? Look at your actions next time behind the wheel. Count how many times you get pissed off. Different town, different people, same you.
Ever have a minivan pull up next to you, and mom has her 4 year old do the fist pump for you to blow the horn? How do you feel? Feels good doesn't it? Same feeling when you share the road. Trust me, it is. You new people, want to enjoy what you do? Then start off by being hospitable. Even in your trainer's truck. Doesn't matter if he's a prick, you still bring your A Game. He will hate you for it. And that's a very comforting thought.
Luck in battle.MACK E-6, Pedigreed Bulldog, 1278PA and 2 others Thank this. -

First off you aren’t passing anyone in a 62 mph truck so please don’t ruin the hammer lane for everyone else.
If you must pass me please do it quick. -
When the last stop comes off the trailer it's hammer time, 30 minute breaks be ######. -
You're gaining on him, but as soon as you pull out to pass him he floors it like a typical common prick. It's bad enough when the four wheelers do that. -
