Thanks for giving us some space. We've almost hit too many cars because they slam on there breaks in front of us. It's so hard to stop when you have so much weight pushing you from behind.
Once I sat next to a concrete-truck driver in a bar, and listened to him talk about it. He didn't like all the little cars whipping around him all the time and failing to recognize the danger. He said, "Do they think I can just stop on a dime?"-Personally, when I drive, I try to give the big trucks some space and consideration. It's safer for everyone that way.
I personally don't have a problem with truck drivers. My best friend's Dad is a truck driver. Unfortunately, it only takes one bad trucker to ruin it for everyone.
When something bad happens on the road who is usually the first to help? You know it. I met Jimmy Hoffa once, he said "if you're ever in trouble kid, flag down a truck, when you grow up; join a union." Then he winked at me. He was just passing by and noticed me waiting nearby.
How cute! My boyfriend has to honk everytime a person does that. He likes seeing little kids faces light up, even to the teens to make them feel cool. We always get a kick out of it.
When I was a kid, my sister and I would pump our arms when we saw trucks, and truck drivers would blow their horns. It always gave me the impression that they were good natured people. That's probably why I still like truckers today, and might have chosen it as a career if my life had gone slightly differently.
how cool is that!

I agree with that!
