Well Pokie I have seen a whole lot of truck drivers that would give you the shirt off their back and I have seen a whole lot of car drivers that you look wrong at them and you get the finger or a cussing or they will follow you. No thanks I'll take the truckers evrytime. Alot of the times when your behind a trucker and you think he is driving bad it usually is someone in a car in front of him driving stupid that he is trying to avoid but you don't see him you only see the trucker. I have rode with trucker friends from Florida to California I've seen how cars drive in front of the trucks.

What you have to remember about truckers, is that its like every other job in the world: All different types of people do it. I dont care if you're a COP, a TRUCK DRIVER, or a STATISTITION, there are all kinds of people doing your job. Some are good, some are bad. Some are smart, others not so smart. Look around YOUR workplace, are all of your co workers "up to standard"?
Interstate driving, like Belle was referring to, is a whole other ball game when compared to "red light-to-red light" driving. But yes, there are fools in any profession.
