Again, If You're Afraid Of Interstate Driving, Sctay The Hell Off!

This is not that hard, people!!

Case in point, just a few days ago, outside of St Louis, it was 3 lanes and some lady in a small SUV was in the middle lane. She had a death grip on the steering wheel and going a good 15 mph slower than traffic. This scenario is uber dangerous.

I came up behind her, not realizing how slow she was going. I slammed on the brakes and flashed my headlights at her. She was NOT going to move over. So I ccould only pass on the right and did so.

Then the lady decided she needed to take the next exit and cut across 2 lanes, right in front of the trucke behind me, who was trying to pass also.

That truck had to slam on their brakes and you could see his entire rig shimmy, trying to evade the lady. I'll just betcha there was plenty of cussin' going on in the big rig!! I know I said some uncharitable things!!

Anyway, the point is, if you, or anyone, is scared out of your wits on a major thoroughfare, stay the feck off of it and perhaps save your life and perhaps others!! It is not hard!

Can't Find Friggin' Customer!

Hell, this customer is 4 miles on a grey line road off the interstate. And it's windy to boot. Barely enough room for a big rig.

Who the hell puts a biz in such a place?? Were they smokin' crack? Such idiots.

Damn!

When Will People Learn To Merge Properly??

It's truly 'mazing how some people actually have a driving license.

Here we are, going down an interstate and some hayseed is on the on ramp.

What do they do?? Poke along ever so slowly, then I get to slow and downshift and maybe move over a lane to let the bumblebee in, just so THEY won't killed in the process.

Geez.

Another variation of this is someone driving along about 20 miles under the speed limit.

You come up on them and , of course, there is a 4-wheeler on your left side who won't move, so you have to slow down. Then you have to wait for an all clear then go around granpa and gram-gram Moses....

If you're going to putt along, why don't you take secondary roads and stay the h*ll off the interstate?? If you can't run with the big dogs, stay in the playpen. Good Lord, it's not hard to figger out!! We'll all be safer too!!

Stuck On the Interstate

*sigh* I'm sitting here, cooling my jets. Some nitwit, half a mile ahead, decided to biff it with a couple of big rigs. Good thing I'm not in a big hurry. *double sigh*

How To Merge Onto The Interstate...Lesson Follows...

When a four wheeler is merging onto the highway, they are supposed to get up to highway speed and then 'merge' into the traffic. Now, that means they are supposed to assimilate their little selves into the moving traffic, not just plow through like they own the road.

Today, TWICE, two four wheelers almost caused big time wrecks by bombing onto the highway and not looking back.

I'm telling you, my four BIG horns atop my cab got really great work-outs by blaring at the offending party's.

Then the looks I got when the drivers' looked into their rear-views, like, "What?? Where?? Who??". Totally clueless boobs.

However, now they are well aware of what not to do, especially in front of a 40 ton big rig. I wonder if the lesson(s) will take...I sort of doubt it...*sigh*....
