I know you like to think you're making a difference, but you're not. For every driver you get fired there's 20 more to take his place. Beside the fact that 4 wheelers out number us 20 to 1, why not concentrate your efforts on educating the public? That's where you'll find the majority of the speeders, tailgaters and reckless drivers. We're just trying to make a living, deliver the freight on time and get back home to our families. We don't need another #### watchdog, the government is doing a good enough job of that as it is.
Your time is up!

Yup trucks are the problem, that's why on Friday a friend was able to rip the back door off a 4 door car. She was to busy texting when she cut him off while crossing 3 lanes, darn near drive off the shoulder, overcorrect and bounce off his drive axles which ripped her door off. Guess whos phone was going off with incoming text messages while arguing with the Leo that she wasnt at fault.
SheepDog, bullhaulerswife and aiwiron Thank this. -
Thank you for getting rid of that troll. He wasn't starting to piss me off, lol. I went out and mowed the yard.
You don't come on a forum and your first post is of threatening manner. The majority of drivers on here are good hard working people that take their job seriously.
By some of his wording only truck drivers use, I bet he is some flunky that didn't make it. Now it's vengence. That or he's bored out of his mind.aggie1978, misterG, bullhaulerswife and 1 other person Thank this. -
Afterthought: I go into Jacksonville all the time. I'd have been loking for him...... -
"So if and when you are transiting through Jacksonville Fla,you might want to have your head on a swivel and look for me,,,Cause yes Im looking for you,Notepad,Video Camera,and Cell phone at the ready"
I haul alot of haz-mat, I see someone following me and shooting video, I'll be the first one calling the authorities. -
But beside this wannabe yahoo posting here. You new drivers need to be aware that some companies do hire watchdogs to evaluate truckers.
I know when I worked for WestSideTransport is when I found out about it. I never knew he was behind me. But I did get an attaboy for getting a good report. Somewhere in OH he was following me.
I have read a news story on one here in TN. They are all around. But the odds of you getting one behind you is slim to none.zebcohobo Thanks this. -
I hope Barney Fife knows that his video may not be used in a court of law, the court has no proof if it was altered or not. Also, technically they are stalking, which could lead to charges on them if you have a good enough lawyer.
Sounds like the same guy by Chattanooga that facing charges for pulling a gun on a trucker for doing the same crap. -
Go do your job and we will do ours.
There are a lot of professional drivers on this forum that want everything you expressed. We too have family and friends that also share the highway with bad drivers, whether it be grandma who drives through the pet shop window or a trucker following too closely behind another truck or car. Oh, lets not forget the drunks on the highways.
Go now and scour the nations highways, Mr. Troll.

First of all, we have DOT and local authorities to make sure we do our job safely. We don't need uneducated 4-wheelers trying to tell us how to do our job. Messing around with all that equipment doesn't make you any safer of a driver either. You're just as distracted as the next driver on the phone you're trying to report.
You tell me to look out for you, but when I see someone with a camera taking pictures of my truck, I'm going to call the law on you.
You're not a lawman. Quit imitating one before you and the other 399 morons in your group end up in jail. -
