    What's up drivers? The forums are getting a little stale, so I thought we could have a little fun to amuse ourselves. The rules are that each one of us can only submit ONE commandment. Later on, we can vote on the final 10 if there are too many. So, I'll kick it off...

    #1. "Thou shalt not take your 30-minute break in the fuel isle."

    Or the bright light flasher who flashes repeatedly, because maybe you didn't see the first blast of high beams in your mirror. Jeesh

    This should be the 3rd commandment:

    First shalt thou get out and look. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then begin backing by lobbest thou holiest trailer of dry van towards thy dock, who, being naughty in My sight, ye shall bump thy dock.”
