Training Isn't For Me.

... I realized that I had gotten lax on how often I checked my mirrors. I've made a conscious effort over the past several weeks to improve this.

And that is one reason I keep coming back here to lurk. Most of the folks here aren't afraid to take a look at what they're doing, and make sure they can't be doing it better.

Well stated Packrat! Even in my little taco truck, the mirror sweep needs to be constant. Mrs Curmudgeon still tells me I drive like I am pushing a tractor trailer. Without the weigh station side trips... only taken me about a year on that.

You don't realize it, but you're still training. After reading one of the more recent entries, I realized that I had gotten lax on how often I checked my mirrors. I've made a conscious effort over the past several weeks to improve this.

For a driver of your experience to share that openly, that's a healthy bit of humility. Respect on that one.
