Hi
Very good article.
I do follow what is written.When I drive I look for a place where you have a lot of trucks parked.The food is cheap,quick and fresh.
As I prefer daal and tandoori roti for my lunch I invariably stop at such places rather than a place where you see a number of cars parked.
Regards

The answer to all questions lies here. Why 99% of truckers are such gentlemanly drivers? These are the biggest eye-openers i have ever seen in my life. It can also be seen as a lesson in life. Truckers have to face such difficulties just to make their ends meet, just to give their children basic education ,just to eat two meals a day. We should learn from these truckers to keep patience, focus, and thank God for whatever he has given us, rather than cursing him for what he has not given. I request everybody on this forum, if you have time, watch this & see for yourself before cursing any trucker.

Recently I happen to drive in Rajasthan (Jaipur - Kota - Udaipur - Jaipur) Nice roads and on top of it nice road manners of truckers. I only wish if they could show half of it on Pune-Mumbai expressway.
90% of truckers drove on left side of road. Given space without honking.
