    Not so sure of that. I haven't seen stupid like today's since I switched jobs a year ago. My route for my old job was Madison, WI daily.

    I had at least 3 people run red lights in front of me today, one person flipped me off because they were too stupid to accelerate to highway speed on an on ramp (I had traffic to my left, where was I going to go?!) and one moron tried merging into my lane while I was right fucking next to them!

    Sounds like any day out here anymore. Crazy to me that I see just as much ‘stupid’ being done by other truck drivers.


    It’s really eye opening when you’re 12’ wide and 115-120k gross and they pull those stunts.


    I’ve seen A LOT of stupid motorcyclists recently — not sure what that’s about. I about killed one coming outta Iowa 80 the Thursday before the 4th.

    Whomever is responsible for putting the stupid in the water, they can stop, there's too much in there.

    Now after reading y'alls comments I see why the Old Company has made 2 approaches too bring an Old Man back...o_O:anonymous:

    They can't fix STUPID but they need someone who knows how to "deal with it" :eek: :thumbsup:

    Trucks not being written up for small $hit that then becomes BIG $hit , trucks getting "oops" because the driver is on cell or hogging CB time instead of "clearing the air " for proper directions into a SITE :mad::mad:

    Life gets ugly when a Pete 379 crumples a bumper due to STUPIDITY :argue: or a dozer keeping up with 6-8 trucks needs to "rescue" an IDIOT that causes said other trucks to wait..:censored::censored:

    OK , Old Man rant over...

    Florida life suits me just fine , I'll stay semi-retired watching the Riva' roll on by :hattip:
