Schneider IC Mandatory OnGaurd system

Not as easy as it once was but the Tattoos used to be a dead giveaway.

 

Before baggy pants around the butt became fashionable that was also a giveaway some had done time.

 

There's tell tell signs but now alot of its incorporated into pop culture it's more difficult and I've been out for years.

 

Now I'm more likely to be thought of a criminal than not.

 

What a way this would be to go. I don't want to disrespect this guy, but yeah...cause behind these collision mitigation systems. https://www.thetruckersreport.com/t...in-this-situation.340498/page-11#post-5751355

 

OnGuard wouldn't have stopped that...

 

Since this sorta dovetails with troopers, collision mitigation, and telltale signs of prison time, I'll share this from just the other day.

I'm headed up the 5 in Oregon; light load, and I pass another bigtruck. A van appears right on my ### as I am almost by the other truck. I signal, start over, and like I expected, he attempts to pass me on the right. He decides not to, since I don't back off. When I get fully into the slow lane, he passes me, gives me the finger, and then pulls in front and slams on his brakes. I hit mine of course, and he slows me down to around 30mph. He starts to go, I start to accelerate, and he hits his brakes again. Despite my years of training and accident free record, I want to kill him with my bare hands.

He then flies down the road out of sight, but not before I get the first 3 digits of his white license plate. I consider making a call, but it would have just been too vague, and I didn't think they would do anything anyhow.

Twenty minutes later he whizzes by me again, leading me to wonder if he has something else in store for me. He may have just stopped for a bit for an innocuous reason as well. Over an hour later I pull into a rest stop, and lo and behold, there is the little prick's van. I go over and take a pic of the plate, but he never appears. He must be sleeping in the van.

I make the call, still unsure about what might come of it. Five minutes later, a trooper pulls in and I wave him down. Nice guy, senior trooper patch; you do not want to be in the wrong with this guy.

After I tell him what happened, he says, "You want me to go over there and give him a citation?"

"Uh, that would make my day" I reply.

He does so, but before he leaves me he says, "If he leaves before I get over there, I'll pull him over down the road and you follow me and pull over too". OK.

He gives him a ticket, and I get to see the ####### again. A sketchy lookin' punk. The trooper comes back to me, and says I should leave first because the guy gave him a problem and might want to give me a problem too.

I thank him, shake his hand, and say I was disappointed not to see him search the vehicle. Florida tags, sprinter type cargo van, the look of the guy. He says he wanted to (His hand remained on his gun much of the time he was talking to the guy) but the situation, maybe him not witnessing the violation, did not warrant it.

I get back on the road. I stop and fuel in Rice Hill.

Back on I-5 about 30 miles and I see a cop with a vehicle, oh my god it's the van, on a flatbed tow truck! I whip the truck over and walk back to see the pinhead and a female trooper. He say's, "You're the ####### trucker!" I just repeat his words to him out of respect to the trooper, while I film the knit-wit. I then tell her I thought she was the same trooper, that he had told me to pull over the first time, and that is why I stopped.

She is very nice, no hard edge, and tells me the first trooper called her and said to be on the look out for numb nuts. He was speeding, and she pulled him over. This time (I don't know why not the first), his license came back suspended or invalid in FL, so they are towing his vehicle. I try hard to contain my glee. I want to say "You havin' car trouble?" but again out of respect for the trooper I don't.

I thank her, tell her to thank the other trooper, and start walking back to the truck. As I reach the back of my truck I turn around to enjoy the scene one more time, and #### for brains is walking toward me! The trooper is slowly following him in her vehicle!

My first thought is thank you god. I will be well within my rights to clock this guy, and then maybe grab him and throw him out into traffic, as he is about to attack me in front of the police! The trooper gets out and waves me away, like get into your truck, and I decide to comply with her order, as I have plenty of time to do so slowly, as he is still a hundred feet away.

I start to move at a crawl, he is now walking behind the truck, and she is following slowly in her vehicle. I am trying to figure out what is going on. This continues for minutes. Me idling slowly ahead, him following me, and her following him!

I figure he is disobeying her orders to stop, and I won't leave her alone with him. She finally gets out, runs up to the guy, tells him to stay put, and then drives up to me. She says she is just waiting for me to leave, that the guy wants to kick my ### but he is walking behind me because he has no choice but to walk up the road because they towed his vehicle!

I laugh, and tell her I wasn't going to leave her alone with him because he is too sketchy. She laughs, and says "He is very sketchy!" I thank her once again, wait till she gets back in her car, and leave. She drives by and we wave at each other. It begins to rain, on the loser walking down the side of the road. Bigtruck 1, four-wheeler 0.

In the video below goofo removes any doubt, and any future defense, that he indeed was the same vehicle that slammed on his brakes. What a moron.

 

The trooper gave him a ticket in the rest area based upon what you told him had happened?

 

And he sounds like he's trans gender?

 

Yeah, which was a very pleasant surprise to me as well. The trooper said if he contested the ticket that I would have to appear in court.

This of course would be the smart thing for him to do, but then I will bring the video of him admitting it. Dumb sob.
