“
Banning
CB's would really put a hurt on the
country's lot-lizard industry. Remember,
it's the economy, stupid! —
or something like that. ”

Thompson, Truck-Stop Manager, Night

“
Maybe. I know when I get
on the CB a lot of drivers think I'm
looking to get laid or
something. I get tired of
getting hit on when all I'm trying to
do is sell these 3.9 cents-per-minute
phone cards in the parking lot. ”
—Angela Johnson,
Phone-Card Lady |

“ Don't
need to ban 'em, just take 'em away
from the idiots. A dude the
other day kept saying breaker-breaker
sixty-one, breaker-breaker! Turns out
he had his radio mounted upside down. ”

Mobely, Jr., Professional Driver |

“ If
you ask me you can accomplish the
same thing by just banning microphones
—
or electricity. OK not
electricity 'cause there's, like,
headlights. ”
—Linda
Huckabee, Load Planner |

“ I
know people complain about TV
interference and stuff from CB's. But heck, you can
eliminate that with a coat hanger and a couple'a rolls of
aluminum foil. ”
—Therbert
T. Howard, Owner-Operator |

“ So
they're finally gettin' around to
banning the Citizen's Band.
That's the group that plays that elevator music on National Public
Radio, ain't it? I say: What
took 'em so long. ”
—Sgt.
"Scotty" McGuire, Night
