Question:
as a truck driver i see horrifing scense every day.
What does SRS mean or what does it stand for like the airbag in the car?
why do the 4-wheelers (car drivers) always cut in and out of traffic just to gain one or two car lenghts? even worse, why do they pull in front of a 80,000 lbs truck an step on their brake pedal? don't they realize that if the truck rear-ends them, they end up like an ant in a tin can?
also, why don't people turn their headlights on when its raining or foggy?
my fellow truckers, you know where i come from, don't ya?
Answers:
how do i turn the air bag off on the passenger side in my 5 door 2003 vauxhall corsa?
Im not a trucker but i know what you mean.. ( i drive a SMALL car and those morons scare me!) its sad...they should require people to retake their license test after so long...people just get too crazy..even with big trucks around them...they wont understand untill they see their car going under the truck and then it will be too late...Then theyll just be a little pile of ruins..Can I send flowers to someone that works in an air traffic control tower?
I also hate to see people passing trucks on the wrong side, or driving along side a truck unecessarily.... theres a "passing side" and then "suicide" i cant believe people are so clueless
Why In the UK, car number plates are a diffrent colour?
they are not dumb. They are just because they are driving a big monster and everyone else must give way to them. Try asking them to ride a bike and do that...Why is it that bridges and overpasses freeze first during winter?
one stupidtwo so the stupid people can see them
Are there cameras in the bank drive thru?
I feel your pain! As a fellow trucker, I am becoming more and more tempted to take pictures of cars smashed under trucks. "Drive safely around trucks, or this could be you."How many pedestrians were killed in 2005?
I don't know when it happened, but at some point people just started feeling like they and their time were more important than everyone else and damnit they're getting wherever they've got to go no matter what.
Couple that with people seeing a truck and thinking it's license.... no, it's their RIGHT to be in front of it. Just slow the hell down, we can't stop on a dime, so yes, you should give way.
should bad drivers get punished more?
They are not thinking of you. You must be very important.Not really. Cool it.
Will anybody give a few "safety slogans" ?
You must drive in Massachusetts, NJ and NY, probably.
Why are cars made to go 70mph over the speed limit?
Just keep truckin and enjoy what you do. I like to pretend I am driving 24 hours of Le Mans. Makes driving more fun.
Jerking the steering wheel to the right or left can cause the vehicle to skid.?
It's amazing how many people have no idea of the laws of physics.As an example, a co-worker invited me out to lunch the other day.
We were getting into his car when I said "lets take MY car"
"Why?"
"because you have three LARGE speakers laying back there under the back window, and if you should get into an accident, we're going to be trying to dig them out of the back of our skulls"
How can i keep my right foot still when using the accelerator whilst learning to drive?
The guy looked at me like I'm crazy! Then we took MY car.
voluntarily re take your driving test - what do you think?
There are a lot of idiot truck drivers. I see them every day. You need to do two things. First, don't lump all of us smart drivers in with all the people you see doing stupid things on the road. I have a perfect driving record dating back at least 20 years. I have no wrecks, either my fault or otherwise. Second, you better make dam sure you are following all the rules of the road exactly to the letter if you are going to be talking shiit about everyone else. That means no tailgating, no speeding, no driving in the wrong lanes, no cutting me off, no keeping a bottle of clean urine behind the seat for drug tests. No nothing. Not one mistake. You are a trained professional driver. Act like it, for God's sake. Your license is much harder to get than a standard motor vehicle license. You are supposed to know what you are doing. It's your job. It's what you get paid for. But the sad reality is that there are a lot of you boneheads out there with unsafe trucks that have cracked brake drums, overloaded trailers, bald tires, unsafe loads that lose rocks that have cracked my windshields three times, and a good portion of you couldn't pass even a basic driving test, let alone a big-rig test. Next time I see one of your trucks buried up to the axles in gravel on a Cajon Pass runaway truck ramp because you were to stupid to slow down at the TOP of the pass I'll remember how smug you were when you called US dumb.i know what you mean.(iam not a truck driver)i seen people crowd the *** end of those big rigs.what i do is ill get in the middle and hold the traffic back till they get turned off,then ill get on my cb and tell the trucker for him(or her)iam holding them back so they can get their truck turned off.they just dont have enough time under their belts,or they are just dumb.
