      @@BigLisaFan on the contrary, when I drove buses the older buses often didn't have as much turn in the wheel as they should. You'd be making a tight turn and come still not too wide that you should be able to get your nose inside any obstacles and low and behold you don't have enough turn to make it. I was forever defecting those buses but nothing ever got done about it. Not great having to reverse in a city bus. Especially with school kids. Never live it down

    • @dashcamandy2242
      @dashcamandy2242 2 года назад +7

      My guesses as to why:
      a) Truckers are less... (What's the best word to use here? Aggressive? Confrontational?) towards law enforcement and first responders
      b) Truckers have had a reputation for being Good Samaritans towards four-wheelers, and police appreciate that
      c) Truckers are less likely to run from a traffic stop, engage in pursuit, engage in a shoot-out, etc.
      d) Reports are much more pleasant to write if the incident is simply helping a trucker, as opposed to a domestic with kids, drugs, and/or weapons involved
      ...and probably a few more if I sat and thought about it for a while.

If you drove through a truck stop like that out west in the 70s and early 80s someone would be after you with a baseball bat. First time I saw it was in Joliet Illinois at a 76 truck stop off I 55. Couldn’t believe it. I quit in 2015 and by then it was normal everywhere, as you probably know. Or trucks are parked everywhere and you can’t get through anyhow. There were way fewer trucks on the roads then too. Times change

      Probably one of the ones stoned out of your mind and bragging about seeing the black dog everyday .
      You can pull how great you has beens were with some , But I’ve been out here off and on since 1989.
      “drivers helped one another” , That’s a lie . Yea and myself included, Grab the left lane and keep on going all the while leaving the breakdown on the shoulder.
      So that’s why I don’t hear on the cb anymore, “I’m gonna call your company” (for someone speeding through the parking lot).
      I’m not saying it’s right , But to hear you on the cb with your not stop complaining was a lot more irritating.
      I could go on , But what’s the point ?
      You and I both know that even the drivers out here 30 yrs ago were no prizes either .

      On castor ave, you go through an intersection then the road makes a 45 degree right turn. About a couple hundred feet there is a railroad bridge with I believe is a 12’8” sign at the bridge. I was a tanker so I had no problem. After making my delivery and coming back, there was a Jb Hunt trailer on the side. He had to wait for the police to back him out. Penndot should have put the sign at the intersection. (This was before GPS). Pennsylvania sign placement sucks. If they even bother to put signs up!

Well that apparently was the wrong entrance. Instead of letting me pull in and turn around and go out they made me back out onto a busy street so I had to call the cops to come and stop traffic to allow me to back out.

Another driver made the same mistake and parked behind me. We were waiting for a little bit, then a fellow driver off duty for was passing by and stopped to let us know that the bridge lied and if you go slow you can make it on the inside only. So we took his word for it and attempted it, we made it and did a u turn on the other side glad that guy saved our ass.

      I had my hood 'grazed' once by trailer overswing, not much damage, I learned reel quick here NOT to park!!
      I park out in no-man's-land, where I can let the Mutt run.................

      That’s one of my worst nightmares. 28 years of truck driving and so far it hasn’t happened yet. NEVER park on the end either. That will increase your odds of not being Primed or Swifty Swifted.

    Andy is from Quebec, Canada. Sign wasn't posted in French.
    That first clip, how come we didn't see the steering wheel holder who has no clue how to drive or check the mirrors?

      Andrea will not be over joyed on this one. Ever sense she took over the company, for the most part, it's kinda gone down hill. They still run some Corridor loads but more quad vans and rolltites.

      Yeah, I wonder if they can just f up a little more traffic to "get their video"? Stuff like that should be refused to be posted & a cop should ticket their moron ass.
