Trucks and Cars (and Cars and Trucks)...

Why can't people driving cars realize that the TRUCK will win every time????!!!!!

This week, I saw on the highway, the same highway both times, where car (or cars) and a truck got into an accident.

The first time, Rob and I were coming back from the doctor's office Tuesday morning. We were in the fast lane and the highway was packed with cars. A truck was in the slow lane and could not get over. As a car was coming onto the highway, the driver ignored the YIELD sign and tried to beat out the truck.

It lost! And got smashed by the truck! Luckily, the driver didn't get hurt, just the car. But, the truck took almost a half mile to stop and pull over.

Today, as I was flying home from school to get Cassi, I saw in the middle of the highway (grassy area) two cars who appeared to be in an accident. One of those cars just happened to be a Jag. But, on the other side of the highway, in the right burm, was a semi. There was also three police cars, an ambulance, and a fire truck.

PEOPLE!

You WILL NEVER win against a truck! SLOW DOWN!

That is all! Off the soap box now.

My hubby drove a semi in a past life. They can't stop a truck or speed up a truck like a car can. This can scare the SHIT out of them. And, if you're not careful, you will be CRUSHED by that semi!

Lots of love and safety to all,
Cathy
