What Bald Eagle means by that, is that he watches what is in front of him. It's quite simple, really. You just keep yourself from hitting anything that is in front of ya. With the exception of pigs, and deer.
I might be wrong, but I don't think Bald Eagle mentioned anything about his side mirrors.

I once had a truck that I could see the front bumper with the fender mirrors.

I must say, you have a very interesting array of images and pics that you use!

GMAFB!

I just had to add to this original post! I finally got the news article to load and saw this comment posted under it:

uh
Unfortunately, it is nearly impossible for rig drivers to see most of what goes on around them.

Thankfully people waved him down, because he would have left otherwise.

Last year a woman walked into the truck while I was driving and her head was squeezed between the two rear tires. She was killed instantly. We had driven maybe another 15 or 20 minutes when a cruiser pulled us over and told us the news. We asked to be taken in the cruiser to see her family who had been with her at the time. It was a devastating thing to see.

Thankfully this gentleman is O.K. and had someone looking out for him.

Watching BJ & Kevin debate each other in this thread reminds me of the days BEFORE they had "special ed" classes for those "special" children...
