    Had an officer already done a safety check on the vehicle?

    Might already be, I’d have about as much knowledge as some of them.

    I don’t even acknowledge shoulder parkers anymore. I pay attention but I’m not making 70 lane changes for every 600 miles traveled.

    If there’s anybody outside the vehicle
    Brake lights illuminated
    An obvious breakdown situation….I’ll make every effort to move over.

    90% of these idiots pull over on the shoulder to take a whiz and out of those most of them just passed an exit with shoulders to pull onto.

    I hate super single tires for this very reason. Sitting on the shoulder like a sitting duck stuck…..
