    In Chester PA around noon today a taxi pulled in front of a Werner truck from the dividing area where 95 Southbound and 322 East split. I really anticipated a major accident as I looked to my right as I was traveling South on 95 but the Werner driver saved the day braking hard to avoid running over the top of the ignorant taxi driver. The taxi already made a major Dumass move to cross over into the white striped area to go toward Jersey and then he never looked to see for any traffic coming behind him. My hats off to you Mr Werner driver.

    If you got his truck number you should call Werner and tell them.

    Wow. I am so glad he could avoid the cab. Even with the taxi driver doing what he did, I don't doubt investigators would still site the Werner driver in the accident.

    Couldn't see much detail of truck number.I was over in the middle lane on 95. I was trying to see what taxi company it was though but couldn't make that out. The taxi company probably had to clean the back seats of the taxi if it had any passengers.

    Glad to hear something positive about the mega carriers for once, since it seems like all I ever hear is negative.

    You really have to be on your toes every second when driving a big rig,the 4wheelers sure don't do their part but yet trk drivers are the worst drivers on the planet according to their one sided statistics.
