Could have used one of those today - or maybe just a happy medium between them and the idiot trucker I (and a lot of other folks) got stuck behind today. 15 miles of winding mountain road, climbing to a pass at 8900 ft. Some snow on the road )chain or snow tires required) and this clown takes his semi up it. Average speed about 15 mph, gets his trailer wheels (at least) off the road at every switchback, pushing a foot or so of snow onto the road for following traffic to deal with (and right in the curves, too), and will not use a single one of the turnouts to let the half-mile long string of following traffic pass...
