VIDEO DESCRIPTION: The CMV driver is traveling in the right lane of a two-lane highway during the day. The driver is approaching a slower-moving heavy vehicle. The CMV driver begins to change lanes to the left to go around the slower-moving vehicle, not recognizing a second vehicle is already in the left lane. The CMV driver has to brake suddenly and swerve to the right to avoid the vehicle. The vehicle also swerves to the right, onto the shoulder, to avoid the truck.

Am I the only person who refuses to drive alongside a truck and will actively speed up to pass them quickly if at all possible?

I don't understand why someone would want to hang out next to an 80' vehicle weighing in at 40 tons and moving at 50-60mph.
