To the McCormick Trucking US Mail contractor that passed me on the right.

When ever you move over to give somebody on the shoulder a little room, just ride down the center of both lanes so nobody can pass you on either side .I do it all the time and some truckers get pissed off and flash lights & honk air horns but I dont give a hoot. !! They are still behind me until the danger passses..then super trucker can mosey on down the road

 

I have seen some of these mail hauler guys looking like walking zombies. The turn over rate is so high, they burn out so freakin fast. Its one job I would not even consider taking.

 

had a Mc Cormick truck pass me early monday morning just west of Cookeville, Tn on I40 going east bound and never got out of the left lane. I caught him going up the 5% grade just east of Cookeville and passed him, he was still in the left lane. He finally caught me and passed me about the 300 marker, i never seen him get out of the left lane till he was out of site

 

They are up there with fedex on speed. They will haul ashpalt right by you.

 

He should have moved over..

But maybe next time the guy in the Pickup will find a better (Safer) place to check his load.
The Shoulder isn't a good place anyway.

 

I do that too, and just give them the "what did I do" look when they pass me

 

Should have or could have might have been convenient except it might not have been safe for him to travel further if he was having a load shift or straps that came loose etc.....

 

Mail Haulers are walking zombies....no doubt!
Not the greatest bunch of drivers that is for sure.
