Runaway truck ramps are built to save the IDIOTS who don't know how to drive a truck. Suffice to say that your chances of seeing a QUALIFIED driver sitting in a runaway truck ramp are slim to none. Perhaps you have a good idea, though - eliminate the runaway ramps, and let the folks who can't keep control of their vehicle answer to Darwin's "natural selection".

simple-Until I got smart and decided that the wear and tear on my equipment was worth more than saving a bit of time I started going north through the valley on 84 which reconnects with 15 and runs alongside the River.

Any driver at anytime could have the need for a runaway ramp ever here of a mechincal failure. Yes they are there to catch the IDIOTS who think they can handle anything. Here is a reason that anyone could need one going down say Black Mtn on I-40 in NC all of a sudden you lose your computer there goes the Jakes sorry. You start to ride the brakes Air Compressor explodes no air pressure you are SOL on a bad mountain you have 2 choices 1 kiss you butt goodbye 2 find the next runaway ramp. Rev do not say this could not happen it did to my father who had 3.5 million miles accident free driving in 38 yrs OTR and was my trainer. The reason the Computer failed relay fell out. The air compressor was even easior to see the drive gear broke off. He buried his rig in the ramp up to the top of the drive axles so do not say it is just IDIOTS that hit those ramps.
