Why do truckers turn on their white lights in the back? We were going uphill toward an interstate and this trucker in front of me started to shine his rear lights at me. Never seen it before while moving so I thought it was kind of odd. When we got to the interstate, he was braking and shining his lights a lot. I mean it's not like I was right at his tail. I got kind of piss cuz he was flashing his brake lights on me so I flash my high beam back at him and droved hard pass him. Anyway I thought this guy was stupid.

 

Give truckers some respect, handling a big rig is a different ball game and they need to turn on their rear lights or do brake checks. Before any steep incline they all do brake checks.

 

they always beep at me when i'm going through tunnels on the PA turnpike :dunno:

 

:werd:

unless you want a bigrig flattening your puny car

 

Also, sometimes they are very sleepy after hours of driving. So just watchout.

 

perhaps sadiztik-r can shine some light on this subject whenever he gets on.

 

This trucker was going around 65 on a 55mph highway before we both turned toward the interstate. He was going 75 over the interstate, but started braking and then when I passed him, he flashed his high beam to me. Talk about respect. He was the one that started this whole thing. He wasn't even pulling on a trailer. He also got some cheap blue headlights.

 

they do the same thing to me...they'll speed, but then i'll pass them and they flash me

or start changing lanes while i'm in the lane next to them :madfawk:

 

in australia, the truckers go faster than the cars in the mountains, its insane. its kinda fun if you race against them and shit.

 

I was traveling to North Carolina from Wisconsin last year and the truckers there were going around 80-85mph around the mountains.
