Was going up to Germantown WI for my reload back to the Twin Cities. I was at the last light before turning into the industrial park.

I had the green arrow and was making my turn when from behind 3 'van body' trucks a 1 ton dually w/ a flatbed dragging a goose neck trailer ran the red light (he was in the right lane, the 'vans' were in the left lane, stopped).

This dipstick had a cell phone stuck in his ear when I seen him. I managed to stop and he swerved to miss me. He ended up going up over the curb and into the outbound lanes of the road I was turning onto. He damn near took out the signal light and signs on the curb / island.

I'll bet he missed me by less than 2'. :yikes:

Scared the crap outta me and pissed me off at the same time. :vmad:

He threw the truck in reverse and backed outta there and took off before anyone got a good desciption or plate number.

People like this clown make me think twice about getting the body work on my truck finished. The last time I got it done, it took someone just 2 months to hit me again. :angry:

Due to lack of loads that 'fit' what I need to do tomorrow, I'm gonna take the day off and bobtail down to Sioux City to have the body work finished.

I just know that while I'm on my way home tomorrow afternoon / evening, there'll be 500 deer lining the roads wearing signs saying something like, "We've been waiting for you to get your truck fixed." :yikes: :rofl: :wtf: :wtf:

Big D,
As a hotshotter, I want to apologize for that idiot! Unfortunately, alot of hotshotters are just not professional drivers. I happen to consider myself to be a professional driver who hotshots.
