    Default truck drivers owned on glenmore

    did anyone see the massive truck inspection they had running under the 18street overpass on both sides? massive truck inspection. there must have been at least 30 guys either inspecting, or handing out tickets.
    anyways, good job cps. it's about time that they had a major crackdown on all those un-safe semi's on the road.

    yeah, I was gonna say, how is this any different from them pulling people over for windshield washer LED's, modified exhausts, clear corners, etc?

    haha, no kidding.

    However most of the things they are ticketed and forced to fix are safety related items as opposed to LED washers and stuff.

    However its still good to get as many LED's off the streets as possible.

    yes, the level of damage is calculated based on the size of the rock X speed of the vehicle. In your case, the probability of your AMG windshield to crack requires you to be at a speed of 200km/h and upwards.

    however, with some trainning, you should be able to avoid such bad luck. I can help you lob rocks over bridges while you can practice steering away and improve your reaction time by 1/4 of a second.

    The only drawback, I will not cover the cost of replacing your windshield during such practices. But hey, you will do anything to achieve madskillz right?

    anywayz im just kidding

    do they do big crackdowns for cars as well?

    i know back when i lived in Estonia every year once or twice they just had a huge crackdown on one of the main streets, the cops just lined up and pulled over everyone they could and checked their licenses,insurance and if their car was in legal shape to drive... wonder why that stuff doesnt happen around here

    max

    oh yeah and i agree on trucks bein checked up like that is a good thing cause today goin to college there was a truck in front of me carrying dirt and it was just trickling dirt and small rocks onto my car.. i dont think i got any damage though.. none that i saw. but something couldve happened! and dump trucks sometimes have shit flying out of their backs which is kinda gross, plus they stink

    I'm sure there are some trivial laws that piss truck drivers off too.
    You start with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience before you empty the bag of luck.
