There are a lot of people that it don't bother as much as it does a lot of other people.
It don't bother me. Unless you've got 100,000 kilowatt flood lights. THAT'S what i hate.
Then there's the idiots with spotlights on the side of the wings or headache racks. They get back in front of you and TURN THEM BABIES ON. RIGHT IN YOUR FACE.
THOSE are the aholes.
STOP flashing high beams when being passed

When I came thru Prime in 2013
In orientation they mentioned do not flash as a truck after it has passed
At that stage Prime was involved in a legal battle as one of it's trucks in Georgia had flashed a truck to move over
Problem was the 4 wheeler tailgating the truck took a suicide pass
Truck proceeded to move over and clean up the 4 wheeler
I can't remember if they said the truck or the 4 wheeler was suing Prime over that flash of the lights
Never did hear the result of that lawsuit -
Hahahaha... LMAO Awwwwwwwww you D!#%!!!!!!!! LOL just kidding with you Rusty hahahaRusty Trawler Thanks this.

None of that here sir. I just like to stir things up when I can but, all and only in good fun. Everyone's the underdog once in awhile. A lot of people always want to take things so serious I know there's a Time and a place for everything but people have to lighten up we have to first be able to laugh at ourselves if we want to laugh at othersRusty Trawler Thanks this.

I've got to add to this with two things.
Too many trucks are now flooding the road with bright lights where no car or pickup can see if the truck is behind them, I am one of them and getting tired of it. This morning it happened again, a truck with crap aftermarket lights with two sets of bright driving lights. He passed me when I was doing 75, he was in a hurry and later got nailed just after my exit.
The second is don't assume I care if you know where the assend of the truck is when you pass me, I want to see at least a truck length between you and I if not more. I have gotten in the last few days less than pickup truck length.JPenn and Bob Dobalina Thank this.
