Game: You First Felt Like A Real Trucker When....

I felt like a trucker when I had a four wheeler going South bound in a North Bound lane on US 15 in MD. I was passing a truck and he came around a curve, I thought I was hallucinating. I panicked , locked them up and held it as straight as I could, he passed between me and the gaurd rail. I was chain smoking the rest of the way to final after that lol. You see some crazy stuff out here.

Wow thank God you are alright

I had a couple of these.moments this week....

When I was driving through KS today and saw a rinky dink truck stop and didn't think twice about pulling in. I used to go to the huge ones with plenty of room

Also in KS I recognizd a town and was like "I remember this intersection. I got lost here before. I'm going the right way now"

Finally, I have done several of the same runs.. So I pulled into the customer knowing exactly where to go and what to do.... While other drivers looked stupid cause it was a confusing place.

Yay me hahah

Yeah, that's a good one for this thread: when someone at a shipper or receiver asks you if you've been there before and you say "I think so. This looks kind of familiar".

BTW, when someone asks me if i've been there before, unless it's a place I go to frequently I say "no" or "yes, but pretend I haven't", because i've found out the hard way that they often don't really need to know if i've been there before, they're just wanting to know if they should repeat any important information, and I usually need a reminder.

When I had a yard dog come over and tell me he has only seen 3 other road trucks put a trailer in the spot I put it in.

It was a really right spot and they made me put the tandems all the way back at the gate. I found the one open spot and I knew I could get it in there and after I put it in the yard guy came over and told me hes only seen 3 other road trucks put it in that spot. He was going to come over and tell me to drop it and he would put it in for me lol.

When I realized I related 100% with this guy: https://youtu.be/IH45XIezEpY

(Well, I check out guys, not girls. And I definitely don't pee while driving, but you get the idea.)

Also, for some reason I couldn't get the hyperlink to work. Said the URL wasn't valid. Maybe because I'm on mobile?

When I drove my car looking for the range selector switch because there are not enough gears.

No, my verification is too strict. I'm going to lighten up the policy to fix that.

Bump

I remember these topics you started! Glad to see you resurrected them from obscurity.

Me too. Ahh, how I miss these games.
