Popular Post mack mhe9 Posted October 30, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2013 This person tried to pass me going into a construction zone on I-91 in VT. All I can say is she didn't make it. It looked like right out of smokey and the bandit when Bueford T Justis tried passing the KW. You ain't going to believe this he just tried drive under my truck.Every one was ok and I get to price a new bumper I think chrome will do. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Dash Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Glad there were no injuries and hopefully a valuable lesson was learned.I was in a similar situation back in May. One too many cars was trying to beat me into a construction zone and I wasn't slowing down to compensate for their stupidity. The end result was a barrel into a "Care Bear's" car and I'm assuming a hefty fine. Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gmerrill0516 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 She should learn that sometimes it's not best to hurry into a situation. A little patience when approaching a narrowing road and a little respect for something that out weighs you by a factor greater than ten is probably a good place to to go easy. She's gonna need some new undies, Some good seat cleaner, a front end alignment and a bunch of other stuff to make that vehicle go good again. I'm guessing she will think twice about beating a truck out the next time...then again I may be being too kind in assuming she doesn't just think its your fault mhe9. That is the whole theory of natural selection now isn't it? Maybe she races trains to cross roads on the weekends for fun.Glad the Mack was still on her feet and only a little banged up...that could have gotten ugly fast.

mack mhe9 Posted October 30, 2013 Author Share Posted October 30, 2013 The chrome lug it covers all over the hwy confirmed my story. But she told the police what she did and for telling the truth they gave her a couple tickets. She was a very nice lady and kept apologizing to me.

j hancock Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 An apology is nice and it works when all parties are still alive.It would be nice to know if she will from now on drive without having her head up her ass.

Mike Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 An apology is nice and it works when all parties are still alive.It would be nice to know if she will from now on drive without having her head up her ass. You can say that again. That happened to me one night in the company truck and the company did not have the bumper fixed, only pulled out. The dent was there until the truck was sold or scrapped.mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umodelnut Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 I would have got out and said "you dumb b......!!!!" But anyways that sucks the bumper got bent. Everyone is ok though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
countryboy5487 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Ive made people get up close and personal with barrels for trying to do that kinda sh*t. Glad everybody was ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gmerrill0516 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Telling the truth and saying sorry admits guilt which is refreshing. At least the guilty were held responsible. Nice people do stupid shit too...It's good nobody got busted up or worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BAD DOG Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Glad to hear everyone's ok. I see the same thing happen all too often. Makes you wonder how muck people really value there lives. Good to see it didn't do much damage to your truck and yes you should get a free chrome bumper just for going through the ordeal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsb502 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Cones? I used to put em on the shoulder almost every day going to Nashville, Id be in the second lane and have my turn signal on for a 1/4 mile or more and they would stay right next to me, speed up, slow down didn't matter so I would turn off my signal and start over.
