    That is a huge benefit for avoiding traffic jams

    One og my main methods of CB use is finding away around traffic jams.

    If you need directions you'll most likely be able to find a driver to tell you how to go

    Stripped off Semi tire tread laying in the road. Nothing for a semi to run it over, but for my little Honda could spell Fatal Crash.

    LOL! Maybe to you yankee boys. But in Floridia, an alligator is an alligator. I almost ran over one just last week, and a friend of mine DID run over one the week before.

    Both, lol. It messed up something in his front end. The car, that is, not the alligator.

    ...And that's all I have to say about that.

    Alligators? Pft... I've had a pallet jack and a chair on the road called out on the radio. Pickemup truck drivers really need to secure their loads...
