    That driver in the right lane appears to be no more distracted than the wheel holder in the left lane who can't pass someone in a curve.

    I think they were doing that because you were coming up on them while the ridding the zipper...

    No buddy it isn't my problem. I am governed @75 mph but drive 70 and more often than not wil put you out of your misery by accelerating but it depends how I feel about you.

    If we could make this happen for about a week, we would see some improvements out here.

    Are you insinuating that you would risk your CDL's to make a reckless pass in these icy curves against a driver who has already demonstrated that he likes to dip his tires over into your lane?

    I only have 1 CDL. Like it was pointed out you weren't even holding your lane prior to the pass not to mention your distracted looking for video footage.

    lol I knew you would fall for that "cdl's" piece of cheese, you're so easy.

    I was changing lanes to pass, how is one expected to cross over the zipper without crossing over the zipper to pass sensei?

    The roads are "Icy" according to you but yet you just sit in the left lane not even a cars length back from the driver. So if its so Icy and he jack knifes what do you suppose happens to you? :Ambulance car v2:
