It only take a split second of thoughtlessness to have an accident. You can't let anything distract you for a minute in this business. He was lucky no one was killed.

Typical oversight by a sleepy OTR driver.

Where in the article did you determine that it was a "sleepy OTR driver"?
Considering that Arlington and Grand Priarie are only minutes apart, logic tells me its probably a local driver.

Logical deduction, Gomez. :wink:

Actually, the logical conclusion would be that he was a local driver since he is Hispanic, lives in Arlington and the accident was in Grand Prairie. There are a lot of Hispanic people who live in Texas. :roll:


Darned Public Education. :roll:

Racist comment if I have ever seen one. Thanks GMAN! I take great offense to that characterization. I'm telling TF. What's next, a c00lie comment?

Logic favors local....but, then you wouldnt be able to use the article to "bash" the OTR drivers. :wink:

Assumption on your part. (actually a rather fair one)

Just see how GMAN backed you up with his cloaked racist Mexican/Hispanic driver mention.
That sucks. GMAN should at least be banned for a couple of weeks for his blatant racist remarks.
