When Big Brother wants to kill some industry he creates raiting
Yes, when i'm driving, I always keep away from big trucks, I heard a lot of horrible stories about these trucks, such as, drunk drivers, sleeping drivers, flying truck tires, etc....
Heres the problem with your blogs. I drive a tractor trailer for a living. Im not unsafe as a driver. You clowns hear horror stories about us drivers and these trucks. Truth is you cars and pickups cause more damage and distress than we do. Do you realize most of accidents involving tractor trailers are due to POVs running into us?
You people know so much about the transportation industry but my question is why arent you driving? Youre good at trying to tell us how its supposed to be. Heres an answer. You take the wheel if you know so much about trucks and driving that is IF you are man or woman enough otherwise shut your mouth you [deleted by editor].
Anyone can doctor reports about this industry. Try it before you speak otherwise I hope you enjoy eating your shoes. Now get off our backs until you get your sorry rearends out here and do it until then you have no claim to anything. Everyone knows what happens when you ASSume something. And here you people went to college for years. Obviously even though you have book smarts like a lot of drivers do, your common sense waved bye bye to you along time ago or your unfounded hatred and blind rage has put it on the back burner. Good luck let me know how it turns out for you.
