    There is no "left lane truck restriction" in that area, where the speed limit is 75.
    Why not just pass him on the left and be done with it?

    Self control and learning to take things in stride came with age for me along with a quik trip to jail years ago.
    Nowadays I don't get all stressed over things I can't control and am much happier for it .

    In the KungFu movies, the Master (the guy that reaches the highest level of the discipline) is ALWAYS calm.

    I speak often about A Game drivers. An A Gamer isn't that driver who got it all together for one run. Its every run. Every day. All it takes is one lapse in judgment and your life is ruined.

    Without that self discipline, the self control, how can you ever even began to see your full potential? Not just in driving, in life?

    The cool head prevails.

    That's usually the problem, a governed truck trying to pass another governed truck end up being a disaster-unless the truck being passed gets caught behind a slower vehicle, or he dicides to back out of it to let other truck pass.

    The latter usually never happens.

    My opinion? You need to grow the hell up. Blowing the horn and throwing in the brights wad a childish move. A guys driver lets those things roll off their back like water, you tried to "get even".

    You are getting two different posters mixed up.
    I was referring to Diesel Drinker.
    who should have "passed him and be done with it"
    Instead he passed him and then became a little child driving a big truck.
     
    HotH2o, bzinger and TruckDrivingtn Thank this.
