I assume many of todays truck drivers are temporary and most probably recently completed their license training. The TransCanada Hwy to and around Revy is a show case for these driver to display there new skills. A case in point BC transportation had to move the "Parking Spot" on the Kicking Horse pass descent to Field, Because many of these Ramrodder's took it upon them selves to Park there rigs in a compacted format head first into a solid mass of granite. It seems to me there may have been a side bet or a contest to see who could compact the truck in trailer into the shortest length. The unfortunate consequence of this "parking competition" is that many of us ended up waiting for hours while the "Clean Up" took place. I drove from Okotoks to Victoria on the on February 1st and a Trans X team decided to park their westbound truck in the eastbound lane in a severe jack knife position just before Three Valley Gap. It took the rescuers two hours to get to the drivers as the trailer blocked the exit on the drivers side and the mountain blocked the passengers side. The drivers were unhurt, but two ambulance waited the full two hours for the clowns to be extracted. I have a suggestion for Tran X Logistics, install sun roofs in your trucks so your drivers can be exit the truck faster.
To get to the reason for my rant, I am all for protest, but if some Ding Dongs in a truck come to my neighborhood and expects to blow their horn constantly day after day. Their horn wont work very long, due to the Axe size hole in your radiator.
