Default Stupid truckers.

Bored just decided to tell my story...got nothing better to do at this hour so here goes.

Heading on the NJ Turnpike, getting on the on-ramp stupid big ass dump truck going like 30 mph, so i am like wtf, you going so damn slow.

It was two lanes n no shoudler, the truck was in middle of two fuking lanes, i was like u dumb truck driver in so am i 3rd (est. 35 mph) when i am up his ass so i cut over to the left lane xP blah, n some other guy is up my ass like he trying to pass me or something but doesn't, so i floor it, need more power so i drop it into 2nd gear.

So i am up to like 50 mph when i am when i whipping around ( tires screaming), strut bars somewhat helped, need some to get some damn sway bars, too much wheel hop. btw, its one of those damn loop turns(made a sloppy diagram w/ adobe hope it helps or not xP) to get on the turnpike, as i am passing him stupid guy in the truck is honking, what the hell do u expect going like 30 mph. so i glance at the reawview mirror, damn it was a lot closer than i thought, so i step on the gas even more, as the turn is at it's peak it got close. Oh wellz i got passed him end of story xP.

Short version:

There was a truck going slow on the offramp so I passed him and he honked at me.

Sorry... that's a stupid move.

Jersey turnpike or not.

Some rice boy in a Ford Escort did the same to me... did a 360, right infront of me. He effed up his tires somehow. I just waved as I drove by and blew him a kiss.... heh.. he was so pissed off.

passing in a situation like this is just dangerous man. chances are, if there is heavy traffic on the turnpike then it really doesn't matter that he is going slow. he is gonna get on anyways and so will you. but if traffic is flying by, he will have to wait a little and so will you. don't have to risk passing him like that. it's a bigass truck so its understandable that he might have to be in the middle of two lanes.

they whole 10 seconds of time you saved to get to your destination wasnt worth the gas you just wasted. and its a stupid thing to do. Truckers are not stupid and they can crush you very easily, you need to respect them.

That is true.
