[QUOTE="tieguy, post: 93955, member: 1912"] Trick your response is interesting in that you in your position are probably more skilled as a driver then most posters on this board. Certainly you as a feeder driver understand that there are many things you do every single day to avoid contact with another motorist and to control your vehicles movement under a variety of driving conditions. While most motorists facing a tricky situation would slam on the brakes , Trick as an experienced feeder driver could tell you of many scenarios where he definitely would not want to hit the brakes or where his correct response may be to hit the accelerator. The other thing that I often find interesting with these debates is that you folks often do the exact same thing you complain that we as management do. If we have a feeder accident or my drivers see an accident on the road they will often discuss it and talk about what the driver with the accident shoulda, coulda or woulda done. You folks actually have discussions every day where you talk about whether an accident was avoidable or unavoidable. In the process many of the newer drivers actually gain valuable insight in how to prevent accidents in those scenarios. So while you often get pissed at me for using the shoulda , coulda words you end up learning from your peers when they use the same words. :thumbup1: [/QUOTE]
