Last time I had this happen it was a guy hauling an Amazon trailer that pulled out from the shoulder of I-15 from a dead stop with all the speed and grace of two turtles fucking. I was *very* lucky that the left lane was open and he got the full air horn when I went past.
Almost got in a wreck like that but with a uhaul. It was steady flow of traffic, raining and of course didn't have their 4 ways on and they pulled out and I had to use the shoulder to pass them
It amazes me how many trucks just go straight on the highway. I fix a lot of trucks in the side of the freeway. I always tell the driver to stay on the shoulder until they get up to speed then merge in with the traffic. Then I go back to my truck to wait for them to start going and they pull straight into the right lane at like 5 or 10 miles per hour…. It’s terrifying to watch as all the trucks coming up are hard braking and trying to change lanes. Get up to at least 50ish before merging.
This this this. Some fucking dick face driving for Schneider came out on me from like a quarter ahead a week or two ago. I had to go from 70 to like 15 in that short space. Fucking hope that guy drove off a bridge by now. Fucking moron.
Don't flash your high beams at night to signal I'm clear, dim ( turn off and back on real quick a couple times) them. What dumb ass thought blinding me so now I can't see shit was a great idea
Well you'd be surprised that nothing in trucking surprises me. And it's not common sense it's MTO or DOT regulations. I'm not shocked that a lot of people that have their license are not the people that actually did the test to get the license. In Canada they just did a small blitz in Ontario and caught a drive who didn't have a license for 20 years. How the fuck is that falling through the cracks for that long?
Fucking beet truck was broken down on a fairly major road in my city. No flashers. No triangles. No driver in sight. Just parked in the lane with his hood open.
Fuck beet season.
Also don't stop in the middle/end of a curve. You shouldn't be stopping on the shoulder if you're not broke down.
DO NOT JUMP BACK ON THE RD FRM A DEAD STOP, BUILD YOUR SPEED UP ON THE SHOULDER 45MPH MIN!!!!!!!
YALL SHOULD BE WATCHING THE GPS LOOKING FOR THE EXIT RAMPS THAT YOU CAN CROSS OVER TO THE ON RAMP EASILY THEN TAKE A PISS/JACK OFF/WTF YALL BE DOING!!!!!!!!
I’ve had to pull over with no lights before when the damn pig tail wiggled loose and lost all lights. But had them back on in a minute or two. Had jam a zip tie between it and the connector to keep it from moving.
There is this big shoulder area in Riverside Ca off the 60W, where other drivers usually pull over and, yes, you guessed it, no 4W, and crawl back on the freeway. Pisses me off cause the entrance is right before this area, and i'm trying to build momentum, only to have to slow down, let these drivers in, watch them take off, and start all over.
I’ve had to pull over to check my truck before, I find an off ramp to do it… It’s amazing how you can hit 50 mph before merging back on the interstate. Some of these guys just flip on their blinker and full send at 10 mph back into interstate traffic
~~Put ur 4 ways on if you're on the shoulder of the highway~~
Don't stop on the fucking shoulder if your truck isn't broken Find an on ramp or something.
*Fixed it for you*
This. Unless I threw a rod through the block I am going down to the next ramp/really fucking widespot ./ to get away from all the morons on the highway.
