on 95. tonight i saw one of my coworkers on the side of the road. i stopped 2 tires of his trailer were torn up bad. i couldnt understand him because his english isnt that good but he showed me a rubber mat type thing with about 20 6" bolts sticking out. didnt put 2 and 2 together. get back to the post office (i run mail) and it was a set up. there was a rope on the other end of the mat. anyway. after i left my co worker felt the trailer shake with a car behind him. he got out of the truck, walked back and 2 people fled in a car. his lock and seal had been cut.

just giving the people a heads up. this happend on the southbound side of i95 around mm 114

They tend to do this alot out in AZ and NV in the desert..... they rob the driver and take the truck usually. Thats why I carry a flare gun

hey cowboy is it legal to carry the flare gun anywhere?

I used to have a flare gun that looks exactly like a magic marker. I got it at a boat supply store called west marine supplies. you point it, un-screw the cap and pull a small chain. You would never know what it is until you un-screw the cap.

It is legal to carry anywhere except for a military base or if you are hauling haz-mat.

And trust me, if you have ever shot a flare gun then you will know that it's just as good as a pistol.... your basically throwing napalm at them LOL
