Western Express cuts me off going up mountain.

I had this happen 2 times this past night by trucks but I just backed off a little and let them get ahead of me some.

I also had a lot of trucks that kept flashing me as soon as I passed their tractor, I always give more space before I get over and I dont care if a car behind me has to go a few mph slower for a few more seconds....there has been times where I would get over and then something happens right in front of me where I have to slam on the brakes, if I didnt leave that space some of those times then I might of been rear ended....one reason why I dont understand why some trucks tail gate people all the time, I will see a truck pass me who is 2 feet behind a car.

 

I hate when they pass and cant stay straight in their lane. Here is what happened to me one day on I-285 Atlanta lots of traffic and misty rain. I Had Just gotten a new T-680 a few weeks prior. It started to sprinkle rain so I turned on my wipers to clear window, and then turned them right off after one wipe it was very light rain, and not knowing the headlights come on when the wipers are on, so as a truck was passing me when I did this and half his trailer was a my window, and as I turned my wipers off the headlights went off, and he thought i was giving him the ok to come on over. I had to go 100% truck and trailer over into the emergency lane. Luckily there was no accident. Now i drive with headlights always on. I just kept wondering why he did this. It took me a few weeks to realize why the driver came over on me like he did.

 

welcome to truck driving. you wont change anything with the self righteous attitude.
