Message:: [QUOTE="like clay… +++, post: 12396827, member: 280008"]Yeah, drivers not connecting that you cannot communicate to any other driver on the road with your cell phone… I’m pretty sure no one has another driver’s cell number. That’s precisely why the major 100 plus pileup on I-40 eastbound in Oklahoma several years back! Fog and no communication from trucks going the other way, nor with any ahead that were at a dead stop blocking both lanes along with multiple 4 wheelers. We all saw the video footage of semi trucks veering off road to attempt missing stopped vehicles blocking both lanes, only to crash into other vehicles that also took the shoulder and ravine… it was a disaster that could have been prevented from truck involvement had they been utilizing practically the most safest and quickest tool that every truck should be equipped!!! THE CB Radio. And there are still to this date Apr 2023 massive pileups that trucks would not have any involvement if the drivers kept communication open between each other by word of mouth “real time” with cb radios. In adverse weather conditions without your cb radio you might as well just close your eyes and drive… cause you are definitely driving blind!!![/QUOTE]
