Sad thing about this whole deal is that the majority of wrecks I see out there are caused by idiots in the smaller vehicles, NOT by truck drivers. Unfortunately the media has convinced the other drivers that the truck drivers are the problems and they have absolutely no responsibility at all for anything that happens. Heck I've had a couple of people on bicycles run out in front of me, cut me off, etc and I can't count the number of smaller vehicles that have done the same thing. On my side I'll admit I've had a couple of close calls that were my fault too. Thing is they were typically things like coming out of somewhere where I had to do it blind due to various types of obstructions, and once when I lost a pin out of one rear brake clevis and almost didn't stop going down a hill....now that was a real butt clencher....
Funny thing I've never had a problem talking on the phone and still watching the road on any type of device. Tell me the difference in a driver in a new vehicle using one of the new 'infotainment' computers, an old time trucker talking on a CB, a cop using the keypad on his in car computer, or me talking on my cell.......ABSOLUTELY NO DIFFERENCE AT ALL....except I can pay attention to the road and talk at the same time and even better can walk and chew gum....LOL

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo. ... [Read Article]
