DANGEROUS MOTORISTS * USA - Troopers riding with truckers to watch drivers



Anderson,Ind,USA -Associated Press/The Chicago Tribune -October 24, 2008: -- State troopers are riding along with truck drivers in an effort to catch motorists who speed or drive too close to the big rigs. In less than two hours after the enforcement began this week, troopers issued 31 tickets and nine warnings, most for speeding or following too close, state police Sgt. Wayne Flick said. Tickets were issued to drivers of both cars and trucks, he said. "It doesn't matter if you're in a passenger car or commercial vehicle: We're going to be looking at you," Flick said... State troopers will ride along with truck drivers looking for aggressive driving around the trucks. If the trooper sees a violation, he will radio other troopers to pull over the motorist...
