  • Ice Pick Bandit Is Getting Brazen. This last victim marks the 15th semi truck with flat tires. Thats right, the ice pick bandit is back. Seems Georgia is his favorite place to attack. Once again, an unaware trucker had his tires destroyed while sleeping on an off ramp on Interstate 75 in Georgia.



    The Ice Pick Bandit has moved on from flattening tires to cutting brake lines. That's right, the bandit has gotten more brazen. He has now marked himself as "attempted murder'. After all, when you cut the brakes of a semi truck, you are risking death, so murder will be the correct charge once we catch this very brave, twisted individual.

  • Electric Semi Makers Are Wacky. Recently a man on YouTube showed a video of a Tesla Semi Truck. He showed how the Tesla was beating diesel trucks up Donner Pass. Boy oh boy, the Tesla sure flew up that hill. I was amazed, for a short time. Then I remembered something.



    I had seen this before. I've seen this exact phenom before. Let me see, oh yeah, I remember driving an empty trailer up Sand Stone Mountain. I remember blowing by all the loaded down rigs. Yeah yeah, that's right. See this joker that ran the video, never mentioned how heavy the Tesla was verses the diesel rigs. I bet if we could have weighed them all, the Tesla might come up short.

    Autonomous Truck Could Backfire on Trucking Companies



    Driverless trucks are coming to a trucking company near you. It could effect the carriers in the opposite way they expect it. Trucking companies hope to eliminate most truck driers in hopes to improve their fleets. There is however, one small factor they probably haven't taken in to count. Their customers might not need them either.



    Without drivers trucking companies will make more money. Also without trucking companies manufacturers will make more money also. Thats right. when these driverless trucks finally make it to the market, it will give the manufacturer opportunity to cut out the trucking companies, just like they are doing to the carriers.

  • The Big Lie In Trucking. What is the big lie? Well, let's put it this way, the current big lie is, Autonomous trucks will always nee a driver. Thats according to the latest news. It has been said that "driverless trucks" will be running Americas roads by the end of 2024.



    That is why I am ticked-off. Everyone was selling the BS to all of us drivers (when the idea of autonomous trucks came out) that we would always be needed. Well not according to the articles circulating the net this week.



    I for one am sick of the BS we get shoved down our throats. The news of trucks with no drivers is devastating. I am one that hopes this fails. It will put millions of drivers out of work. The rich man has done it again. Well maybe not quite yet. Some legal moves have to come into place first.

  • Has FMCSA Really Made Roads Safer? Check out these stats. 1975 4305 deaths involving large trucks, 1976 4893, 1992 4422, 2002 4846, 2021 4714, so it does not appear to have changed much. With all the regulations, you would think the numbers would decline every year.



    The new regulation to hit the market are "speed limiters". It is unclear if and when this will start but it is heating up for debate. Many claim that it will make the roads unsafer. Putting over 3 million large trucks on the road, at a slower speed than cars, is a recipe for rear end collisions. We will see how this plays out. Has FMCSA Really Made Roads Safer?
