    it is or was an a-hole move I agree....again man your signal doesn't mean anything other you would like to move over he/she or anybody else has no obligation to let you or anyone else out..

    I know. However, like you said. It was an ####### move.

    It pisses me off how i turn my signal on and everyone just keeps passing me without yielding.

    Sometimes i just dont even use my turn signal because nobody knows what they're for anymore. They think they're just there to be pretty i guess.

    It's my personal opinion that problems caused by too much speed are rarely corrected with more speed. I have never had a semi trailer start to sway, something would have to be messed up for that to happen, extremely unbalanced load or mech breakage.

    Now this truck and trailer hay truck I'm driving now is a differant story.
    Some of the coastal roads really piss the trailer off.

    Also if there was enough delay between the truck brakes and trailer brakes to matter in your senario, we would all be piled up in the ditch in the winter time.

    Again, just my opinion.

    no offence hotshot, but in my experiance.....granted its only been 9 years....swift, weiner and the rest of that lot, only tend to hold me up severly once they hit the hammer lane....something about not being able to go fast enuff to get out of thier own way

    hey, was that LS truck a red flatbed by chance?
    wait, couldn't have been me.....i dont work enuf so i would remember it
