cclarke1268,
I agree, I absolutely love the job I do, But I have to admit that I am getting more and more disturbed by what I am seeing. And oh yeah, Add speeding through the pumps as one of the no-nos.

I turn on my headlights in a TS but turn them off when someone is backing. Also as a courtesy and a safety factor, when someone is backing next to you , turn on your marker ligths to guide them and not to hit you.

Something that drives me crazy is this.....on freightshakers (not all, but most), there is a switch marked as "roadlamps" basically these are white foglights, but many drivers have them on as well as their headlights. Just because 4 wheelers use them is no need for drivers to use them....they blind people. Also, some trucks lights come automatically as soon as they release their brakes and even shutting them off at night to let a driver know that he is clear dosen't work....thats why some drivers flash their high beams. The manufacturers think this is a good safety device like the 4 wheelers have, not realizing its not, but they never spend the hours behind the wheel that we do.
