    Drivers With Spouse and Small Children At Home

    I have no spouse at home, (recently divorced), and no small children, (I couldn't do this with small ones), but I do have a 15 yr old daughter. (She remained with her dad, he kept the house & the dogs, & I sure do miss the dogs!) We keep in touch by phone, text messaging, pix via cell phone, I...

    All those cross's on the sides of the highway

    I used to wonder how come people could get so many DUIs, and why they were able to keep driving drunk, and I finally decided that maybe it's the only "crime" that the police, judges, and politicians could imagine themselves committing? And they wouldn't want to be judged too harshly for just...

    Bad Drivers

    Doug, when you talk to the insurance rep again, you could point out the fact that a closed head injury may not even look like "a few little scratches" - it might look like no injury at all - but it can be severe & lasting brain damage. Which she already knows, of course, but she will try to...

    Bad Drivers

    Raceman;if you got the impression I was trashing you, I apologize> I really am glad for the chance to talk to other drivers. I do try to be more careful in writing than talking, because it's permanent! But as far as being PC - I couldn't care less. And I'm ok with people disagreeing with me...

    Bad Drivers

    I think cell phones are not the biggest problem - it's what they represent that is so dangerous. Namely, that driving is something you can do while doing something else at the same time. Even those of us who have been driving longer than teenagers have been alive need to consider driving safely...

    Busted - now I have to admit that I read everything because I like to read and have been a "bookworm" (which doesn't translate well to the 'puter - who wants to be a 'puter worm?!) all my life. Since y'all asked for it, I will throw out a topic on which I could use some advice. And a variety of...

    OK, you guilt-tripped me into posting....Like Diesel, I have been expediting since January, co-driving with an o/o, and now I'm preparing to be an o/o. So I have a lot more questions than answers (and one that comes to mind is: why do expediters stay at truck stops? I drove a semi for awhile...
