I travel the Natcher daily, and those dump truck drivers are VERY dangerous. Always, ALWAYS well over the speed limit.

Agreed with Jim! They don't even slow down when they get on the parkway

what are you guys talking about it was not the dump trucks fault you are always quick to blame the truck driver people like you are the cause for a lot of these wrecks your not supposed to slow down when you get onto the parkway that's why its called an acceleration lane
