    Me Too....I want to know the same thing also....and while we are at it...why do you 4-wheelers cut in front of us, then slam on your brakes?? Are you trying to test OUR brakes?? Or are you looking for a big lawsuit since ALL trucking companies are SOOOO RICH???? LOL

    Maybe because 98% of truckers also drive 4 wheelers? :biggrin_2556:

    well..I don't read the newspaper while I'm driving but my main goal when driving on the interstate is to allow no one to pass me. Keep everyone and everything behind me.

    Luck Id imagine. Thats why I stay off the interstate unless traveling.
    Besides, Id hold up traffic for miles in my '84 Ford Ranger Diesel. 60MPH top speed and Ive never topped it out. Leave 5 or so minutes early and watch the lines of SUVs at the gas pumps. 33MPG baby! :biggrin_255:


    My best guess is people are so focused on passing that semi, that they realize theyre not setup for their exit and have to dart across traffic to get there. Or...just want to be in front so they can see more. IDK how some people get through their day. :biggrin_2552:
