I drive a semi. In one 600 mile round trip I pay $175.00 in tolls.

I see some bad truck drivers, and I see plenty of bad auto drivers. I would like to see the police pay more attention to tailgating, and reckless lane changing.

Truckers are an easy target. Morons try to bounce of them all the time. 98% or more are good professionals, amking their living on the road, while some ditz in her excursion, who has never really driven anything bigger than a schwinn 10-speed tries to feed her kids while popping in a fresh dvd, do her makeup and finish a call to sally decides to get off at the next exit (50 yards ahead)from the far left lane right infront of a o'weight permit-loaded truck.

They people who complain about trucks the loudest are generally the worst drivers.

It's beginning to look like the female population in that age range is joining fast. Some of the female drivers in that age range that I've seen could go toe to toe with any guy for aggression. The thing that alarms me is that with guys it just seems to be the kind of macho car thing, showing off, but these females seem to be nasty and callous, or indifferent about it. Just a different sense I get from them as drivers.
