but mostly the over the top writing style

Bobcat, You are right again! You must be eating some serious brain food lately. Todd's writing style is unmistakable. I would encourage anyone unfamiliar with Todd to read some of his previous posts. There are PLENTY! You will see exactly what Bobcat picked up on.

So....let us begin our next discussion on the merits of driving color coordinated tractor trailer combination vehicles.smile.gif

Combination Vehicle:

A vehicle with two separate parts - the power unit (tractor) and the trailer. Tractor-trailers are considered combination vehicles.

I agree with PakRat. I am none too pleased with people who blind me with their high beams as I'm checking my mirrors for clearance to come back over when passing. I don't appreciate seeing spots and being blinded at all. If you turn your lights off then on re quick, that would be much more appreciated. I thank those drivers with a flash of my 4 ways.

HOS:

Hours Of Service

HOS refers to the logbook hours of service regulations.

Your Freightliner should have two buttons that do both of the above for you. The other two buttons on the right side of the steering wheel with the cruise control.

Lots of truck drivers do the high beam flash, don’t do anything, or occasionally speed up these days. I yell at them on the CB when it happens, but most don’t drivers don’t even have a radio. Car drivers are the worst with flashing their lights at night. I saw a great bumper sticker last week: “STUPID SHOULD HURT!”. Loved it!
