Washington lawmakers on Tuesday outlawed truckers and bus drivers from texting from behind the wheel. The prohibition allows federal agents to monitor all outgoing texts for the following phrases:
- "brkr brkr 1-9 do u read?"
- "10 4 gud budd"
- "ovr n out"
- "smokey@mile marker 22"
- "yeeee hawwwwww"
- "slow down gud budd u blew my doors off"
- "p 2 tha m"
- "ne body got pills?"
- "do u copy?"
- "in da poky w/ smoky"
- "u got a smoky bout 2 bite ur b-hind"

I'm wondering if this law also applies to drivers of wimpy "C" Class Mercedes?
Hey, I wanted text speak in the teen post, not this one!
This is a good idea.
Thought provoking.
Well in that it provoked these two "thoughts":
- It's nearly impossible to convert the lyrics to East Bound and Down (Smokey & da Bandit theme) to text shorthand
- Despite popular belief that Blondie introduced rap music to white people with the song Rapture, the theme song to the movie Convoy beat her too it with white country rap 5 years earlier!
Unlicensed trucks from Mexico are not subject to these particular texting regulations. You can usually tell those vehicles though because they generally stop from 1 to 4 pm.
i knew my CB would come in handy
