You ever see the sign on the back of the big trucks that says "If you can't see my mirrors I can't see you?"
I don't drive a big truck, but I've spent a lot of time pullin' all kinds of trailers. I've had a lot of guys like you slip in behind me. Worst case I had was on Rt. 17 in NY east of Binghamton. Hilly, windy and, that particular mornin', wet. I spend a lot of time in my mirrors. Still I didn't see this fool get in behind me. Just every now and then I'd catch a glimpse of him in my mirrors, weavin' around back there like he was tryin' to warm up his tires or suspension for a Nascar race. I slowed down to 45, he stayed there. 35 he stayed there. For him to get where I couldn't see him when he was directly behind a 7-foot-wide box, he had to be two feet off my back door. A flamin' a$$!
I finally pulled off so that he had to coma around. The jerk gives me a big yeehaw and a thumbs up as he goes by like he and I had been workin' together. His girlfriend's just tryin' to be invisible. Oh yeah, did I mention the rusted out shuttbox he was drivin' was plastered with all manner of Nascar decals? I'll bet his brakes were right up to snuff.
