People who must back into an almost impossible spot at the truck stop because it's in the front row when you could go to the back and have your choice of 20 slots...

Parking on the Fuel island.

People who come up to me asking me for money.

I've never understood that, kona. I used to always park in the back row. You can always tell when someone is trying to back in one of those hard parking spots. You hear the guy in the next spot, "helping" the driver, backing up, on the radio. :P

"Get under it. Straighten up. Get under it, turn, turn. Keep turning. Ah. Youre gonna have to pull up." :P :lol:

That's another good irk. The closest I've come yet to kicking someone's ass was when this stupid :dung: in a reefer pulled through and parked in front of the pump, then went inside to eat lunch! I didn't actually confront him, because I'm a wimp, but I stared daggers at him while he scarfed down his chicken.

I really wish I were more the fighting type, because that guy needed a load lock shoved up his nose, sideways.

4 wheelers in the left turn lane who stop WAY past the white line so you can't make a right turn without making them back up. :x

Also tailgating BBR's, this happens WAY to often whether they tailgate other big trucks or 4wheels
OK, since I posted the above, which I saw on Tuesday this week, I saw two more truck rear enders. Maybe other saws them as well.

2nd was on Thursday before the wicked storm in Chicagoland. I-290 eastbound side near St Charles exit 14, destroyed the cab of the offender. Dont know if he was hurt.

3rd was Today Ohio turnpike eastbound around the 140mm. Werner rear ended another big truck, from the appearance of the wreckage, Werner was traveling at speed and hit a stationary object head on. Thats how bad the truck was destroyed. Dont know of injuries.

Whats up with all the rearenders, Ive seen enough. I just got to shake my head and say WT_!!!
