    Hero - That impatient trucker thats trying to pass you in a curve on a 2 lane road.

    Safetyman - The ultimate insult. Want to hurt a trucker's feelings? Compare him to a safetyman.

    Buffarilla - an incredibly big scary female. part buffalo, mostly gorilla.

    Homo driver-a tailgater (sticking close to someone's backside)
    Homo driving- tailgating

    Supertrucker - any truck driver that does more talking about driving than he actually drives.

    i've mostly heard "polar bear" used to describe an OH trooper. i gues because their cars are mostly white and they can hide between the snowbanks in tha middle :confused:
