    That's a Supertrucker checklist item.

    Interesting since an individual driver has no CSA points. In fact a company could not inherit any points a driver had. Now if you told me a company will not hire someone whom according to their PSP consistently recieves violations I would say good on them.

    so basically,it is up to you if vehicles in general are able to pass you even when ALL the posted signs clearly state "slower traffic keep right". If you want to be a cop and play lane monitor,why did you go to driving school and become a "truck driver",and yes i am using that term loosely.

    drivers with your attitude are exactly why the majority of car drivers never desire to work w/us.those of your ilk,unfortunately, represent all drivers and that representation is not favorable.If others want to travel faster,how is that your concern?

    carry on there super trucker and cause congestion on the highways simply because you do not agree w/others that may want to cruise at a faster pace.That 0-1 year experience that you declare is quite evident.

    the windsmith can,and clearly does cause road rage by driving w/the attitude that no one has the right to drive over the posted limit if they so desire.
    And to think after 35 years of being able to drive whatever,as in when i turned 16,i had always thought that LE are the ones to pass judgement on a speeder and act accordingly.We now have lane/traffic monitors out here that are cdl holders piloting big trucks carrying out their own form of law enforcement sans the badge.

    I am truly in awe of windsmith and his/her expert analysis of just how to control the flow of faster moving traffic.heck,he/she merely blocks the flow if he/she thinks others are driving too fast.

    perhaps you should differentiate and/or clarify as i see hundreds of detectors as i am on the road during the week.modern detectors do much,much more than detect police radar.

    you need to cease assuming as you have no idea regarding the background of 99% of the posters on this forum. Oh never mind.i see where you have been out here 0-1 year which automatically qualifies you as a know it all. I am correct to presume that you were spoon fed the little that you do know regarding transportation and that came from the multiple choice tests that you took as paid for by tax dollars.* Sad that you did not enter trucking because you wanted to.It reads as if you had to.Do you find it to be rocket science now that you are directly involved?


    *disclaimer-i have no problem w/tax dollars paying for truck driving schools.i was merely assuming,not unlike the o.p. did regarding me.
