Side note.....

If someone would INTENTIONALLY damage my truck......Game-on.

An accident due to their stupidity: Insurance claim, a few strong words and a bag of flaming dog crap on their porch, after I get the police report to find out where they live.

THAT's all acceptable stuff, there........

 

Be prepared, it is the holiday season and more people are drinking and driving. Add a little winter weather to the mix and watch your back side! Red

By the way, I think driving and talking on a cell phone should be outlawed nation wide.

 

I watched a school bus almost pass another school bus yesterday morning. Second bus was stopped, lights flashing and rugrats moving.

 

I get rear emded all the time, but nothing has happened to the truck yet. I usally get hit by some POS car driven by some idiot with bad brakes. This is why I keep my ball/hitch on. Their car getsall messed up and nothing happens to my baby.

 

Yeah, it didn't take more than two months before my rear bumper was dented on my beloved truck. Some dumbass built a column to hold up part of the parking structure at work, and the damn thing hit me when I was backing into my usual spot. **** me off. I was thinking that I'm gonna maul theidiotresponsible for that dent, but then strangely I got over it.

 

I hear you guys, my poor truck got T-boned on Friday when a guy ran a red light. Lucky for me a cop was right behind me, so he testified for me, hehe, but the down side is my truck is in the shop for 2 weeks [&o]

 

I hear you on this one. A few weeks back I was behind a vehicle demonstrating typical DUI driving...weaving in and out of its lane, driving below speed limit,etc. I pulled to the side to get a look...only to see a teenage kid with both hands on his cell phone using both thumbs to text message, steering with his knee. Needless to say, he got put on the shoulder.

With emerging technologies comes more and more distractions. GPS units are so affordable now, people are playing those more or at least looking at the screens. Ipods/MP3s require looking at the screen to see what song you want (as opposed to just clicking the seek or preset buttons on your radio...you don't need to look at). Cell phones and text messaging are bad. Don't forget how cheap GPS units are for your laptops, so people stick them in the car. Most of the time they don't have laptop stands so they are looking over at the passenger seat to see the laptop screen. All these multitasking items don't work well for some people's driving.

I wish they installed on every car a front radar system that, depending on the speed of your vehicle, could emit a tone (as annoying as a seatbelt chime) to say you are too close to the car in front. If the radar detects you are overtaking very fast, the chime gets louder and more annoying. I know the technology exists for safer cruise controls, I just wish it was on all the cars out there (especially teenager cars!).

 

If you can't Dodge us, RAM us!!!!

LOL

 

Almost makes you want to load up aheavy duty grille guardon the front end of your truck and push those people out of the way so they can't be stupid anymore. But I guess it's only a dream.
