even semi drivers aren't any better than the rest of us when it comes to
driving on the road.you like to stereotype people ?. i have a hopped up
pickup truck you think i am a reckless driver just because i have a hopped
up truck. you should look at yourself first before you start calling people
bad drivers. i seen an accident(heard at least)where an red neon ran a yield
sign and t-boned a dodge minivan(AWD)and made it rollover thank god it
landed on its tires again. As it was they had to cut the passenger out of
the front and the passenger in the back. both were 82 years old. maybe all
neon drivers are reckless??
