    Here we have the classic Royal Highness Princess Right of Way mentality truck driver who feels the speed limit is just too darn slow and will do anything to get in front of the pack lest he be held back to the lowly max speed limit which is for safety losers only.

    ok, so let me ask this question, if this video was shot by you, and even not.

    when have you ever known, and be honest, that many times, traffic goes above the speed limit?

    like say for instance, 65 in a 55 zone..or 60 in a 50 zone, etc, etc?

    is the person shooting this video "God's gift to highway safety"?

    if so, time to give up that position, and just drive and MYOB???

    many times on my route, i cruise at a mere 60, in a 65 mph zone, in the right lane.

    i get my doors blown off by faster trucks

    so what?

    just drive and leave''em alone?

    as i'd highly doubt, the videographer of this video, is a darling angel himself.

    Judging by his many,many, many,(did I say many?) videos and his commentary, I believe he feels all trucks should all drive slower than him.

    You gotta chill man. I used to get wound up about other drivers and their stupidity. Since I stopped giving a crap about what everyone else is doing, my stress levels are way down. At the end of the day, does slowing down once or twice to prevent an idiot from killing someone else really cost a lot of time. Just like the guys who need the 650hp engines. They only get to the mill 5 minutes faster than the guy with 500 horses.

    Dye Guardian had said it best, basically do not watch any of the videos.

    frankly, i really was not familiar with the o/p and his self proclaimed, "Safety God of the Highways".

    Wow you guys are a tough crowd. I read plenty of posts every day about speeding truck drivers doing crazy dangerous maneuvers in traffic and when I post video evidence of the same activity I am told to chill out and maybe I caused it by not exceeding the speed limit?
    Trust me I already have my speeding award from 2011 along with an illegal lane change certificate around that time both of which almost lost me my CDL.

    If the speed limit is 65 scottie and a truck wants to pass you at 100, why do you care? Move it or lose it
