Can I rant? Driving stuff...
Picked up the trailer today after some warranty... I hate the rain and driving in Washington. Was on I-5 and Highway 16 from Tacoma to Poulsbo WA, about an hour drive. To the Lady in the Subaru...

One suggestion: When you see a truck or bus or car with a company logo AND PHONE NUMBER on it, and the driver has his head up his exhaust pipe (Think about that line a bit) have your co-pilot call the phone the number and tell the fleet safety guy what's going on.. Including the vehicle fleet control number (If there is none then it's likely a one vehicle fleet).
The driver will, at the very least, get a new weight reduction program when he returns to the yard.. You know, "just a little chat with the boss"
Here is the problem. The fleet manager has no way to determine the facts. Years ago I owned an auto parts store. My drivers were busy and a large account needed a delivery soon. So I grabbed the part, jumped in the truck and delivered it myself. I just got back to the store when I got a call from a resident saying that she saw our truck going at least 70 MPH!
Research showed that she was talking about the delivery I made and I am sure that I was going BELOW the speed limit of 45 because of road conditions!!! I promised her I would "have a talk" with that driver. LOL
