    These are the same type of insecure people who are against gun ownership. Cuz guns are scary and go bang.

    These are the idiots that come up the ramp and just sit there next to you until they run out of lane and slam on the brakes. They're the ones with no business having a driver's license.

    And that "tsunami of freight," that's what keeps you alive, morons.

    "They are definitely a big distraction" Does this mean she had to put down her cell phone and make up?

    Lauren Johnson seems like she needs running down. Just kidding, but these people really can be idiots. In my car, I speed up faster than traffic while on an on-ramp. Then I look to see if the vehicles around me are going faster or slower than me, an adjust my speed accordingly. It is much easier to slow down than speed up.

    She has NO business driving on the same road's as us if she is that scared of BIG TRUCK"S. She's the one who will cause the accident first, and who will get blamed the big truck.

    The law states, they yeild and merge. We truckers do not have to move over! But courteous veteran truck drivers, respect the road and those travelling and make every effort to keep themselves, and everyone else safely moving down the highway by being a cautious.
