You know you are a professional driver when...

yah you think your car is way to close to the ground

 

I have to think about where reverse is in the car and I keep stalling it out trying to start in 4th. I forget that I have to use the clutch to shift it.

 

I am glad I no longer have my 2003 Maxima. I bought it when it was still new nine years ago and man I really thought that I was going to hit a big bump and hit my butt on the pavement. That was the lowest ride ever and I have been in a lot of sports cars. I would probably have a heart attack if I still had that car now, because my current car actually felt high in the air before I became a trucker and it feels extremely low now. My next vehicle will be a hybrid SUV.

 

I have a very steep hill in my neighborhood, everytime I go home I slow way down before going down the hill....

 

You get in your car and reach for your log book!

 

How about when you go to down shift your pick up, floor the clutch and think...oh ####! Clutch brake!

 

You get off at the weigh station ramp and hope the light doesn't turn green directing you to the scales.

 

You make it thru a 5 mile back up without ever having to come to a full stop

 

Actually did that one in wifey's chevy... pulled into an empty but open scale. The weigh master was laughing his head off before I could say a word...

 

You pee in bottles when in your personal vehicle.
