Police need to be observed as well. They should get the same punishment we all get. My dash cam actually caught a State Trooper driving reckless and speeding on a highway. I spoke with the Troop Command about the incident and filed a complaint. It didn’t go anywhere and they didn’t care. I turned in my video to the State AG and filed the complaint with the AG. All in all….the Trooper was issued a traffic citation. Shortly after, he resigned.

@@robertstewart1262 I drive a lot (50,000 miles a year) on 4 wheels. I’m not sure where the stats come from; however, trucks are my main problem. The only vehicle to hit me on the interstate has been a 18 wheeler. Swerved into my lane, pushed me into the grass, then hit me. Many times trucks have changed lanes, pushing vehicles off the road. This causes accidents, but the trucks keep going, having hit nothing. If slower traffic (trucks) would stay in the travel lane and not the passing lane this wouldn’t happen. Truck are a menace! I have to drive at night to get away from them. This is not ideal for me.

@@northseabrent Dude, cops are significantly less complicated and clever than they make themselves out to be. They really shouldn't be doing stupid shit like this unless they had the intelligence to do so. Save this shit for special divisions, aka officers who have the mind to actually make this stuff effective. Police officers can barely drive let alone form complicated plans to stop aggressive driving. It's a joke how useless they truly are. Maybe they should prioritize routine surveillance and routine patrols instead of sitting in a ghost car randomly in the middle of the street and still not pull over anyone going over 60. I was arrested by a state trooper, we had a nice conversation when he put me in the front of his car in the passanger's seat about how most officers don't have the capacity or skill to operate at certain levels, especially on the streets. What was I arrested for? Outrunning a state trooper. You know what would've prevented me from running? Proper surveillance and officers set up frequently in the right places to prevent people from getting angsty.

I disagree. I participated in this program with the state of Missouri back in 2013. Had a trooper riding in my tractor and calling out vehicles that were cutting other trucks f (and me) off, brake checking us and more. He rode with me for 4 days. They issued over 180 citations in that time (none to trucks), and could have issued 5 times that if they had enough chase vehicles. It was an eye opener to the trooper. He was shocked at what we put up with every day. It's not always about money.

I chased the jerk down and he pulled into a liquor store. It had a Raiders sticker the size of the back window on the car and the gangster wannabe kid about 20 years old got out of the car and started spitting on my truck. The city police would not do anything so I just left. He wasn't from my town so I wasn't really worried about him looking for me to retaliate. Even though he would have surely killed anyone that stepped out onto the sidewalk.

@@Mr.Highway Where shall I start. There is much education that needs to be expressed here by the way you asked that question, there is much you don't know. To learn to drive a 20 ton coach bus like mine, I won't even mention the three weeks of classroom training. There are three books you have to read, memorize, study and get tested on It takes 6 weeks before you can drive a coach bus. The training is enormous for a bus and guess what.it's even worse for a truck driver especially driving hazardous materials. A CDL driver is must be held to a much higher standard than a regular guy put putting in a car. Ok...here's what you need to know. If you see a truck or bus coming your way? Get out of his way. If you cut me off? I can't stop. I"m not going to swerve to avoid you, and take out the poor guy next to me. You will get creamed. If I put my turn signals on? I"m telling you. This is not a request. This bus is coming.
