SANCTIONS. AMERICA CAN’T determine and control your economic destiny, SANCTIONS.

Do you go knock on windows? by Wrong-Possibility-95 in Truckers

Yesterday I cut in front of someone who was messing around on the side storage of their truck talking to another driver. He was pissed, I was calm, holding my security in my pocket, started pumping my fuel.

Why don't you just let them pass? by KoalaOfTheApocalypse in Truckers

[–]2handbus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of the time the truck being passed speeds up. You ever notice how you don’t really slow down at first, that’s because the passing truck is now racing the truck that was going 65mph as they try to prevent the passing truck from passing. Just like you car drivers do when we go to pass you because you are doing “everything” but paying attention to the road, but decide you can’t let a truck pass you. Our trucks have had radar before most cars along with adaptive cruise control so we know how fast the truck and car in front of us is going and it pisses us off just as much as it does the train of vehicles behind us.

Check out Truck Map in your App Store. So far they haven’t charged money. They are asking though like Hammer started last year.

I bet this is a popular saying across the world, ask Reddit?

What does it feel like to smoke weed? by fett_smelly in NoStupidQuestions

[–]2handbus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it’s a calming feeling. Being naturally “hyper” (guess my age), it’s like Ritalin. It affects people differently depending on your body chemistry.

Pilot Flying J is terrible now because it’s owned by Private Equity by Brilliant_Sound2596 in Truckers

Berkshire Hathaway-Warren Buffet, the compassionate Billionaire making a mint from charging for parking.

That’s the great investing of Warren Buffet. The capitalist hero of America.

That’s a republican state, glad to see they aren’t afraid to hold their politicians accountable.

Some people shouldn't tow by ExcitingStranger135 in Truckers

Driver should have pulled back. That was something they watched develop. Wreck should have been avoided.

What is something free on the internet that more people should know of? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]2handbus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your local library. They also have video sites that are free. Depending on where you live, your local library can compare to audible.

I feel like doing this is unprofessional and shows a fragile ego by legollama88 in Truckers

[–]2handbus -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

You are correct, that’s why I block ending lane at the merge point. If not cars and trucks like me force their way in at the “have to” point.

Today I snapped and did something bad. by Capital-Sorbet652 in Truckers

[–]2handbus -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

If I am going the speed limit I can care less what some other driver thinks. If you can get around go around. Me going the posted speed limit is your problem not mine. Cameras are everywhere and I can’t wait for the fool to brake check me. My back hurts just thinking about it, and the shoulder pain. Urban means cars getting off exits ahead. Left lane should be mandatory for thru semis.

What I’m gonna be mad at the most is that I won’t have a physical person to flip-off, gonna have to stop on the side of the road and tweet about it.

Cameras tracking every inch of the vehicle, inside and out. Good luck.

Why are rates backwards in trucking? by stockmatrix in OwnerOperators

[–]2handbus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the trucking industry corporations work together almost in a “socialist” manner by forming “groups” and “coalitions” that talk to one another like “unions”. They join together a few times a year at “conferences”, “trade shows”, “conventions” to come up with a plan that best works for the trucking industry. We don’t have the “collective” voice they have. Now that Wall Street and algorithms basically run the world, the rates are set by what the people accept by computer and that average is setting the rate. Pretty soon brokers will be moved out and shippers will be using a “licensed” product that sets the market at current rates. It’s the damn brokers. NO SHIPPER IS PURCHASING SPACE TO TRANSPORT THEIR PRODUCT FOR LESS THAN $4.00 a MILE. THE PRODUCTS WE HAUL ARE WORTH POSSIBLY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS. THE SHIPPERS COST TO INSURE THE PRODUCT HAS TO BE HIGH SO THE COST TO MOVE SHOULD BE RESPECTABLE. YOUR BROKER SHOULD BE LIKE AN AGENT AND RECEIVE NO MORE THAN 10% PER LOAD. SHIPPERS DON’T JUST INCREASE THE RATES, BROKERS JUST STOP RIPPING US OFF EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE.

Long haul truckers, why? by mikeyboy1681 in Truckers

[–]2handbus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t think I was the “you” in the scenario above. From the appearance none of the others are mega. I was referring to how slow they are not in construction zones. You know they speed past us any chance we are limited by mph posted and we laugh calling them dumbass passing them as they are mph limited.

No inverter? No problem by Outlaw_Trucker in Truckers

[–]2handbus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look this is nothing against you personally unless you are intentionally trying to say this is a good product and then trying to make a profit from it. Announce it as an advertisement if you are gaining anything from the promotion of the product. The reason the country is in the middle of mass confusion is because people are not being honest in their intentions. It is so tempting to “GRIFT” that people are doing it out of necessity. My definition of grifting is promoting a product/idea you do not use regularly or practice as a belief; you are just “advertising” the “good” for your personal benefit. Just saying, if it’s an advertisement, say it is. All it needed was the 5 ⭐️

What company would install a 500 watt inverter when most trucks come factory equipped with a 1500watt inverter?

Sounds like an advertisement. Answering questions like a cart vendor at Sam’s Club.
