    I know from my experience when I use to drive garbage trucks especially when I was fully loaded which was typically 20tons some asshats decide let's pull out in front of this truck instead of waiting for me to pass seen it way to many times. I remember once when headed to the landfill dude pulled out in front of me I layed on the air horn dude flew off the road into a field. So I feels your pain on that

    That's true for all metropolitan areas.

    I feel like the 3 rivers in pittsburgh really mess things up. There are tons of bridges and even more one ways. If you miss a turn, simple logic and sense of direction will only leave you asking a crackhead for directions. My experience before modern GPS anyhow.

    You guys see the cab mounts from NTK Fab? If I ever decide to do mine I’ll buy a set from Nick. Pretty legit dude.

    Never heard of them. I’m sure they’re similar though. I think my next large project will include floor and fender trimming.

    Should I be afraid now?? :eek:

    Anyways, him & I we didn't actually make contact. Although he clipped that double parked truck on the other side, and then he lost control and crashed into parked cars.

    Next day he called my company and said that I'm responsible for his accident , because I veered into his lane and caused him to crash. :boom:

    For real, I had a dr appointment yesterday and had to come in early to make up for the time. I should do some work, but then I wouldn't have anything to do on Monday when I'll have someone here with me. I'd rather look busy then. It is making today drag like a monday though!

    I travel up and down I81 here in northeast PA almost every day. This area is also where I84 from NY and I380 (the link from I80 coming from the east to I81) intersect with I81. I constantly finding drivers who believe they have a God-given right to ride the left lane. While a few are PA drivers, most have license plates from NY, NJ, MD and VA. Add to that the impact of the hills here and truckers who just have to make that pass when they are moving along at 46 MPH in a 65 zone around another truck that is doing 45 and both lanes can be jammed up for miles, especially during the summer months. It's why I typically take the longer, less frustrating back roads home during the summer driver lunacy season.
