Reply #9: I told you my story about following truck drivers [View All]

[hickman1937]

on my way to and from college in the 70's. I was a wind sucker, but those guys took care of me thru the 150 miles. Maybe it wasn't you I talked to. If not, let me tell you, I was out there in a pinto, and those guys let me follow them thru snowstorms, driving rain, sleet, etc. Every time they'd get to a drift in the xway they'd tap their brakes twice or 3 times to tell me to back off, then plow a track for me to follow. On clear roads, when I'd pass them they would put their brights on to let me know they saw me. I swear to God I never cut anyone of those guys off. They taught me courtesy well.
