Not so much a question as a lesson for new drivers who may train/work for the company highlighted in the video. If you can't pass properly, stay the eff out of the left lane.

Probably the speed governor.

You know what? They're all idiots, but going to the shoulder to pass is just ridiculous.
Dave_in_AZ, COBB2070 and Roadgeek395 Thank this. -
But as the "middle" truck, why do you want that truck on the left next to you for MILES? Just back out of it a SECOND and be done with it. ####.

The end of the video asks, "Who was right here?" Certainly not Freymiller. That was dangerous as hell. The Swift in the left lane was wrong too. If you pass someone, you should be able to do it easily. Granted, sometimes you miscalculate. There are times when the hammer lane is packed with motorists and some truckers will activate the turn signal and try to force their way in the hammer lane. That's wrong too. Sometimes you have to just be patient and wait for the hammer lane to clear. Nine times out of ten, a truck is going to slow down traffic.
