Professional drivers have many specific techniques for working and communicating with each other that cannot simply be explained to an outsider. Among them there is also a very
For example, to those uninitiated in long-haul business, it is more or less obvious why heavy truck drivers place an “empty” sign on the windshield of their tractor. This is done in the hope that traffic police and transportation supervisors will be less disruptive with their supervisory attention. Considering the fact that many routes are equipped with automatic weight and size control, this seems a bit naive, but still…
In principle, you can also figure out the meaning of the appearance of a sign with a man’s name on the front of a truck. For some reason the driver wants everyone he meets to know how to contact him. Well: people also have more extravagant desires.
The installation of various types of phallic symbols made of rubber or plastic in the corners of the tractor cabin, while pursuing a hooligan-like undertone, nevertheless pursues a completely pragmatic goal: an attempt to prevent an accident. Such incidents happen when a car is in the so-called blind spot: an area under the side of the truck where the driver’s gaze cannot physically enter. If a collision occurs in such a situation, the plastic phallus is the first to come into direct contact with the body of the passenger car. The noise caused in this way attracts the attention of the inattentive driver and gives him at least a small chance of avoiding a collision at the last moment.
We also know all about empty plastic bottles being placed in the rims of a trailer. As long as the driver sees in the rear-view mirror that the bottle is turning, there is nothing wrong with the steering wheel. There is no rotation – you need to brake urgently: the tire is punctured and just drags on the highway.
And for some time now on the roads of our country we came across tractors with a pair of women’s shoes on the running boards. Or instead, there is a doll ‘sitting’ there in a woman’s dress. Moreover, we are only talking about the step on the right, passenger side of the cabin. Most people who observe such “tuning” believe that it is done for fun. And a similar opinion is widespread among truck drivers themselves.
In fact, this “joke” was brought to Russia by their colleagues who spent a lot of time on the roads of Europe. Dutch truck drivers came up with the trick. Shoes (or a doll) on the taxi step ensure that the driver does not currently use the services of girls with reduced social responsibility. So that those of them who work tirelessly at truck stops do not wake up the driver sleeping in the cab in vain by advertising their services. That is, shoes with a footrest are a sign that means: “shoulder straps are not necessary.”
