"bear" or "smokey the bear" = trooper
"full blown bear" = trooper with his lights on
"bear taking pictures" = radar trap
"bear in the woods" = speed trap
"do you have your ears on" = question to a fellow CBer asking if their CB is turned on
They also call each other "Driver". I wonder what they call those of us driving "4 wheelers".
