since when did the shoulder become a rest area?

It's when they pull out in front of you going 15 that is the real danger.

 

do YOU KNOW for sure the reason why the truck was on the shoulder?

did YOU STOP and go over and offer assistance?

or are you one of those drivers (or steering wheel holders), that just drives by..???

 

At the last place I worked, at least once per month I had to ‘rescue’ a driver that ran out of hours. Only one time did any of those drivers have the brains to pull into a truck stop, rest area, or parking lot. All others were on the shoulder of a highway. When asked, why did you do this? They all said ‘they wanted to keep heading to the yard, just trying to get as close as possible’.

 

Wait minute, pulling over to piss on my drives is wrong!?! Bummer.

 

that's the main reason I do move over.
other than that, it considerate to do so.

 

It always used to be. Till recent years idiots crashing into parked trucks. Maybe I grew up in a different time.

 

I agree, but sometimes there are times where I can t whether its a truck passing me or car speeding up or won t let me over with blinker on at least a half a mile in advance or further

 

Always expect em to do that. That's the 1st thought that pops in my head when i see that.

 

Obsess much?
