Reply #36: Some people don't know when to shut up. [View All]

I've had a couple run-ins with truckers. Once while driving on a state road in Northern Ohio a truck driver started to turn in front of our van at an intersection. At that point he didn't have the right of way so we had to stop. He stopped his truck in front of us and did a Sieg Heil salute. We sat there for maybe 10 secs looking at him. I'm not really sure what he planned to do. A van with 15 people vs 1 truck driver not a smart move. He finally moved and we went about our business.

Another time on another trip we stopped in a Mountain area in I believe Virginia. I went into a truck stop alone ahead of my family. I was around 12 at the time. I looked around for a moment and a guy that looked like one of the Clampits came up next to me. Speaking in a thick drawl the only thing I could understand was "We gonna start some fires on the hills." Something else about "your kind.." with other incoherent babbles as my 6'2 dad walks in the door. Behind him followed about 8 other people who went on the trip with us. The guy quickly walked away.
