    Yesterday a trucker got in an altercation with a 4 wheeler trying to merge on I-65 in Nashville. They eventually pulled over to the side of the road and it got physical. The driver of the car, Nichols, had a gun, and it fell out of his waistband. The truck driver, Christopher Jankowski, tried to grab it, but Nichols got it first and killed the trucker. The story can be found at WSMV. 20181201_060541.jpg

    You never know who you're messing with. Not a good idea to get aggressive.

    Exactly right. It's a given that 4 wheelers are going to cut in front of you. I hate it, but it's not going to change. Certainly not worth losing your life over.

    If you are trucker and someone is acting crazy, keep those big wheels rolling and call 911.

    sounds like a good country hillbilly ghetto rap song could come out of this, just what nashville does best.
