I mean I like to joke too, but the people who actually believe the joke...

We got a Swifter!!!!

That is the Hopland grade I have been on it many times and it is windy.

He's alive. The truck, load are covered by insurance. Maybe lost his job and potentially got the push out of truck driving which is an honest profession but at same time there are better.

Swift will hire him.


LOL....now that is funny and probably true. What is up with those idiots anyways? If I have been cutoff or darn near run off the road, it's been a Swift driver.

See my above...and it really has happened more times than I can count. I travel a lot and pull a big horse trailer. If I have ever had a precarious situation involving a trucker, it's ALWAYS a Swift driver. They either go to slow, too fast, or my personal favorite, get in the passing lane only to sit there and pass no one and hold up traffic for miles before they get over. Believe me, the jokes are warranted.

Right but the more trucks on the road the more likely you will end up in a bad situation...
