I have lost ALL respect for truck drivers! Back when I started the PD in 1980 truck drivers had the attitude that they were bigger, heavier vehicles and went to great lengths to drive in a more courteous manner because of it. I pretty much left drivers alone unless they really screwed up, I felt they were doing their best to keep the roads safe while making a living. Over the years their attitude changed and by the time I retired in 2002 the general attitude with truck drivers was that the passenger vehicles needed to watch out for THEM because they were bigger and heavier and if they didn't it was their fault, not the truck drivers! I even had drivers at the local truck stop voice this outlook to me a few times in the coffee shop. I talked to an owner operator friend of mine that had been driving for over 30 years and he confirmed that the attitudes of drivers had taken a drastic turn over the years and was almost ashamed to admit he was a driver by the time he retired. Since retiring I have been ran off the inside shoulder of the interstate several times by truck drivers who decide they are going to pass even if you're in the left lane and about to pass them. They just don't give a schit and hit the turn signal and start the lane change as soon as the hit it! I've gotten to the point that I'm truly paranoid about passing a truck if there is another vehicle in front of it! It's a damn good thing I'm retired because there's no way I would give a truck driver any kind of break nowadays. FUK TRUCK DRIVERS!
