As said, there's a lot of sharp qualified professional drivers and then there's.......
BUT that is true of EVERY trade and profession.
Had a state highway closed for 10days this summer for one of my construction projects. Typical spec detour/alt route/local traffic only etc signage. At least 3 or 4 semis a day would get themselves trapped in town. No worries on one end it was easy to drive around the block with big vehicles and the other end had an area big enough to turn around a semi no problem IF the driver could back a trailer. Had 2 separate women drivers that could not back their rigs into this turnaround. Both just ended up backing them straight back 1/4 mile to the nearest cross street where they could make a lap around. Sheeeesh!
