Hi apackof2-

"...My girlfriend was flashed by a pervert trucker and she had her kids with her. However she got the license# and company name and when she got home she told her hubby and he called the company and read them the riot act and the trucker got fired..."


Well that serves her right for cheating on her spouse. Her poor husband is busy making angry calls to trucking companies about alleged perverts and meanwhile she is straying into the arms of another man. She has a lot of nerve.

How was she flashed by a guy driving a truck that is likely six or eight feet higher than her vehicle? One has to literally crane their neck in order to look upward at a trucker in a full-size rig. Did she mention she was horrified for several hours over the course of hundreds of miles?

Lastly, don't bet the farm that the trucker was terminated from his job. It was a simple "she said" and "he said" situation. Not that your girlfriend embellished the story, but I wouldn't be surprised if trucking companies receive LOTS of "reports" from disgruntled motorists who experienced some road rage because they were delayed for ten seconds while rushing to Starbucks for their venti, half-foam, half-soy, vanilla/caramel espresso frappuccino. It is very easy for the trucking company to simply tell the person on the other end of the telephone that the driver was fired to make them go away.

Hi taxed2death & uptoolate-

See my post# 53 earlier in the thread. I can count on one hand the unprofessional truckers I've witnessed in the past thirty years. I'd need a calculator to track the number of insane car drivers I've seen in the past week!

Dude, you forgot the sarc tag - don't you think apack might be a girl who has a female friend, rather than a philanderer?

Another explanation might be that apackof2 is a girl, and we girls are known to refer to our female cronies as "girlfriends".

Are you calling me a liar?

You obvious have some kind of screw loose to write something like this

Well that serves her right for cheating on her spouse. Her poor husband is busy making angry calls to trucking companies about alleged perverts and meanwhile she is straying into the arms of another man. She has a lot of nerve.

My girlfriend is a stay at home mom who home-schools her children not some "pavement princess" that you seem to imply and are probably more acquainted with.

My girlfriend was on her way back from her mom's house with her 3 small children when the PERVERT trucker started making indecent gestures which I won't repeat! And it wasn't a distance of over a hundred miles as you IMAGINE

PERSONALLY I was driving to KY to attend a conference less than 2 months ago I was accosted by a PERVERT trucker who held a sign up to me that said "Show me your boobs"

Plus 2 incidents that I can think of that I was almost ran off the road by truckers who wanted to get over WITHOUT using a signal on that same trip

Plus if you had bothered to read my earlier post instead of ignorantly shooting from the hip, you would have read that I realize that not ALL TRUCKERS are not like those I mentioned and those who are give other truckers a BAD NAME

Unlike you who reduces all motorists to a stereotype i.e. " motorists who experienced some road rage because they were delayed for ten seconds while rushing to Starbucks for their venti, half-foam, half-soy, vanilla/caramel espresso frappuccino.

FACTS are funny things

You should try using some

Scheech!

That sure is reading a lot into something that was never said or implied. Why accuse her of that kind of stuff just because she didn't like that kind of vulgar behavior being directed to her with her children with her and she complained? On what basis do you make such insinuations about another's character? What should she have done? Just be quiet and let it go? Let him get away with it so he can do it again? What's your problem?
