When driving through small towns at night, always assume every car you see has just left the bar. Never drive faster than you can see. In heavy city interstate traffic, drive fast enough not be an an obstrucktion, but slow enough that the four wheelers are always pulling away from you.

It was the dead bodies that somebody ELSE stuck in there that I wanted to avoid. And yeah, I am serious here.Wargames Thanks this.

Ack, I left out a word. That word was POSSIBLY. I never had no dead bodies (or live ones either,) dumped in my trailer. But I kept it locked!
Wargames Thanks this. -
Ha! I don't know what would be worse -- dead or possibly dead.
Yeah, keep 'em locked so the zombies can't get in. Or out. -

Good thread, Wargames. Thanks!

So, what do you folks think of this, in terms of defensive driving?

My questions:
How does he know Mr. Lane Change is Russian?
Was the guy with the camera following too close? He can't see what's in front of Mr. LC and really has no idea why he did what he did. If Mr. LC stomps the brakes, Camera Guy is toast.
Did Mr. LC just show his attitude: "No one is gonna pass me."
One YT commenter said that if anyone did that to him, he'd ram their truck. Any thoughts on that thought? (My thought:
)
Is impatience the real culprit here? -
Missed that part.

You got that right!

There was an incident in Texas where someone locked their kids inside of an empty trailer.
