    I saw one on I-20 in Texas a few years back and nearly hit it. It was on the interstate! I thought I was tire and seeing things but no, it was really a cow!!!

    It's true though they need to give us more credit I see that crap so much in NY/NJ even from these port truckers. Insane to see a fellow trucker cut you off...

    There has yet to be a single day in this job where I haven't seen both 4 wheelers and big rigs do something downright dangerous. I bought a dash cam because I figure its just a matter of time.

    Instead of companies having driver facing cameras, maybe these companies ought to just turn the cameras facing out of the windshield?

    to me if a company has cab facing cameras, its probably because theyve had to many at fault accidents.

    There has been 3 truck wrecks within 2 miles in 1 week on my haul route. It's an Interstate that's flat and straight! If I do the speed limit everyone passes me. Except for that guy on his bicycle. Keeps the riff raff away from me.
