08.08.24 (MP3): Roadway Ruminations @ Gearhead Central - Work Trucks VS New Dirt, Mirrors Warning Lights for Distracted Drivers, Hunting the Clunk, Straps Good & Bad, Multi-Lane Merge-Fails & Fighting the (Man) Ticket, + New Shows VS Mealy-Mouth Beta Boys

Don't let the compunannies and digidistractions make you less of a (hu)man - it's time to think before you sink (into the mud and unpacked dirt at that job site, Mr. Cement Truck Driver)... It's an episode full of whatever got in the Gearhead Consultancy's way, because we're too damn busy.  How about cops and their Exploders?  Good and bad strap technique for fun and disastrous truck towing and hauling?  Why that little light in your sideview mirror should warn motorists about YOU... ...And why turning across lanes to avoid one driver is a recipe for meeting other drivers the hard way.  So much good stuff... What about some thinly veiled leftism hiding in new limp-wristed podcasts?  Some Amon Tobin and traffic school?  ...Also, let's remember Scott Bloomquist, incredible dirt-track racer but not so much of a pilot.  R.I.P., you excellent weirdo.
