Start with GOOD HABITS and STICK with them.

got it guys thanks. i'm not going to comment on the rainbow stickers. gotta keep it professional.

 

Roger,

Out.........

 

10/4. Catch ya on the flipper. Keep the shiny side up an the greasy side down. Stay outa the grass and the bears off yer... tail. That's ------- said it atcha. We down, we gone, bybye.

 

Also a good habit when yer runnin in the hot states AZ,TX etc,and you keep her runnin all night do yourself a favor wake up 1hr early shut her down get your chow down and check ALL your fluids dont just take off cuz you will be on the side of the road wonderin what happened.Is it hot enough for ya?

 

I like the guys that park at the fuel island and then never even think they might want to expedite whatever it was that was so important they had to block the fuel island. If circumstances make you park at a fuel island, make it the farhest one, not ALWAYS the very nearest one. If you have to be in the way, be there for the priefest possible time, stop lollygagging. When parking the priority needs to be don't block anyone, or as few as absolutley necessary for as little time as necessary, and make sure there is a way around you. Instead, one driver sees one moron parked in the way and he parks next to him, because there is always room for one more truck, no matter how little space is left.

Turn off your dang headlights when you are parked. Are automatic headlights so widespread almost nobody knows how to flip a dang switch? If you are moving, lights on. There is no prize for driving with your "I just looked at a Peterbilt calendar so I drive with my parking lights on half of the night" lights. If you don't make it a habit to drive with parking lights only you won't be the moron forgetting to turn on headlights at night. BTW, parking lights don't count as having your lights on if the conditions dictate lights need to be on, like driving in the rain. When you turn onto the street from private property, check your lights on/off as needed. When you get onto the interstate check your lights on/off as needed.

 

I agree 99.9%

However, If someone is underneath the car with legs sticking out on the white line. it's hard to tell sometimes if it's debris from the car or just the mind playing tricks. Sometimes it's not obvious if activity.

I was fooled once after passing the broken down F-150 on the shoulder
passed it 4 times that day, no activity, That 5th time someone was indeed under that truck with legs sticking out. Tire shredded prior to the truck still debris on the shoulder. I assumed it was blown towards the truck with all the traffic. Nope wasn't the shredded tire, was legs.

No 2nd vehicle either. I'm still clueless

 

thanks for the info guys, all of it is very useful. leaving tomorrow to start for training at stevens transport...
