I have been directly involved with truck drivers who can't speak or read english.
I was parked at a rest stop somewhere around the arizona california border on i10.
Some gigantic truck pulls in and as he turned to park the rear bumper of his truck hit the driver side taillight on my pickup. Broke it all to shit.
The guy had to converse in some kind of app translating whatever version of chinese he was to english.
Took a while but he paid for my taillight.
I was on a recent trip in my 2024 Subaru (I owned for 4 weeks. It beeped, flashed lights, screen warnings etc) when it flashed a message that I needed a break. I pulled into a Pilot Travel Center. Had a seat while I drank a decent cup of coffee and realized no one spoke english. Even the speaker announcing the shower opening was in a strange language. I only knew it was for the shower because it was one of the languages on the tv monitor.
