OOOOHHHH DDUUUDDEEE I'm with you 100%. Road etiquette is dead. People have become such schmucks behind the wheel. It really bothers me too.

...But we digress

I know exactly what you mean! I flashed a car w/their turn signal on (and obviously trying to change lanes) to let them in infront of me, and they just sat there!!! How stupid!!!

And then people wonder why I like drafting off of semis when I go on road trips... they are (for the most part) the only real drivers left!!! (but don't get me wrong, some CDL drivers still can't drive )

Commercial Drivers Liscenses... they are the ones endorsed to drive the 18-wheelers (semis), the doubles/triples, Haz Mats, and even tanks...

I think it is pretty pathetic that you can get done for obstruction. I had a good friend get done back in Chicago a few years ago for doing that.

I have done it here in New Zealand but flashed a cop at night. Not too long after arriving in New Zealand on my way home from work after 15 hrs I was ummmm driving in the wrong lane, thought the guy comming at me was so I flashed him. Being about 9:30pm I could not make the car out.
The cop flashed them back so I put mine on full for a short bit. He hit the over heads and the fun began. Thank god he was good natured and we had a bit of a laugh out of it and he followed me home to make sure I make it without killin someone hahaha.

:smoker2:

Miss Angie,

Yesterday was busy as could be, so I couldn't get a full reply in.

We always referred to a Commercial License as a Class A or B. Class A you can drive everything. Class B is everything including buses, limo's etc.. as long as it doesn't have air brakes.

I used to hold a Class A license. Loved my job for the most part. I agree with you that most CDL holders are very professional drivers. The few you find that aren't are generally the guys/girls that have been pushing too hard for too long and they are just overly tired.

I don't think it is against the law, but I am sure that a cop would find some excuse to give you a ticket for doing it.
