I can prove that Saskatchewans roads are worse than Montanas.


Their drinking and driving laws are twice as tough as ours.

I’m with you there Jim.

It is unfun driving through Saskatchewan to say the least.

Recent made up studies have shown that one out of every one Saskatchaweiners will die at a north south intersection with the Trans Canada highway.

To the OP, did you have dash cam? Road rage and generalized driver stupidity plus dirty cops have prompted a lot of drivers to have to them. To prove or disprove fault.

I'd get one but can't find one that hooks up to a Cricket phone or the Life Alert fob

True Story!

I was walking in a shopping market parking lot in Canada, and a family of Muzzies was driving a mini-van and as I was walking from one parking lane to another to get to the store, they did not slow down and almost hit me as in inches away.

So I open-handed slapped the driver's side windshield as hard as I could because I was really pissed.

The windshield broke into thousands of pieces into their laps. You should have seen the look on their faces. lol

I shouted, "Life may be cheap in your country, but in Canada we value ours.

cool

"Truck drivers tend to be Sikhs (they wear turbans) or East Indians."

I work night dispatch for a Canadian Company. Mostly just answer the phone and look up load release numbers..... It's the company with the buffalo on the side of their trucks...

Anyways... I work with a bunch of American drivers... and they are good for the most part... some are employed as truck drivers because they are not employable anywhere else.

as for the Canadian drivers... most of them are of the Sihks variety... And I have to say. I really like working with those guys... they are polite and respectful, and always open to helpful suggestions and are thankful for any help or guidence you give them.

I am not joking.

If I owned 300 trucks... I would hire 300 Sikhs... no lie.

So Interstate 5 isn't the only fun place to drive around Semis, exceeding the speed limit by quite a bit, riding your bumper, then pass you and barely missing your front and rear bumpers as they change lanes..... only to be driving up a mountain side 3 miles down the road, taking up lanes from one side to the other and doing 27 mph uphill and then doing 90 going down hill.....

Indians and Pakis from BC to the north, and Juan and Jose heading from the south going northbound.

Certainly makes one appreciate American truck drivers ALL the more.

And you would have 300 trucks with schittholes in the sleeper floor, and undercarriages plastered with curry schitt. No truck repair shops will work on these trucks. Won’t even let them in the door.

^^^^ That is True!^^^^

He forgot that part, and he also forgot to mention how they are putting WHITE Canadian Drivers out of business, by working real cheap, since they live three families per household and share all costs and can afford to do that.

I do not.

I drive a fair amount and really have been quite fortunate over the years. But I am really considering a dashcam. Been talking to a trucker buddy for recommendations.

As to the incident. Was life threatening as I saw it developing and wasn't at full highway speed. Took the shoulder, then the edge, then a bunch of the reflector posts, then the grass shoulder and then the ditch.

I suppose it was good it was me and not some kid or someone that might have panicked and made it worse.

I did finally speak to someone at the trucking company. You can guess the accent. Told him I wasn't looking for anything. No real damage but that his driver was going to kill someone.

He had his curtain on his driver's window pulled over halfway forward. Wouldn't peak out around when I pulled alongside.

When you only meet another vehicle a few times a year a guy can get complacent, and it’s usually smoother in the ditch, drunk or sober.

That is unless it’s a borrow pit ditch. Like highway 2 between Havre and Chithook. More white crosses in the ditch than mile markers.
