You are a professional. You had it all under control. If you would of took your foot off the pedal you probably wouldn't have had to move over to the side. I don't know if you have always been a prime driver, but it's no fun being in that middle lane going slow. He misjudged you, and yes he could of waited a few more seconds, but Crap happens. I have people jump in front of me, and I slowed down so I don't run up on the truck I'm coming up on, and they try to play it off and stay there for a second or two then jump back in the passing lane and get down the road. It always amazes me how people who drive fast (some) don't look very far ahead. Maybe you a perfect guy and never make mistakes, but I hate to see you in the unemployment line because some snitch in a slow truck. Mad because he can't pass anything but gas. Sends your mistake to the safety department.
By the way I have had this new K Whopper 680 for about a month now and they didn't want to mount my old cb because they said it was a fire hazard. I guess I had to much fire in the wire. I haven't got a new one, and I very seldom use the old one anyway. Maybe the guy didn't have his cb on when you tried to reach him. I know my eyes are as good as they use to be, and I try to wait until both lights are in my mirror before I pass, but maybe it was an honest mistake and not some guy trying to take off the hood of prime timer. You guys seem to do a good job at doing that all by yourself. Just messing with ya.
Keep filming your cat begging for milk and remember snitches get stitches. Just kidding again. Also remember stay off the rumble strips. That's a chicken haulers alarm clock. We back quiet. -

what do you mean by that? Just because I dont want to get over 5 inches in front of the other truck?

I am sure everyone on here would probably be laying on the horn. A little closer or a bump is how accidents happen and possible death. They say lighten up, I don't think so. You could be laying on your side on the side of the road trapped with your truck on fire.
A wise man once said............................Nothing ! -
Dennis if that scares you. You need to stay a wannabe, because this happens every day and maybe a few times an hour. Usually by 4 wheelers, and truckers who just want to take that kool-aid smile off your face.
#1. A professional would of known. People in a hurry do crazy stuff, and make stupid decisions.
#2. The western express truck exhibited being in a hurry/ rushed by putting his blinker on before he passed the op. That should tell the professional. Have an out ready. (Defensive measures that will prevent you from filling out an accident report, and or limiting damage). Which the op seem to do when he moved over and slowed down.
#3. Never I mean Never let them see you sweat!!. The op showed his road rage honking the horn, and trying to contact the lane invader on the CB. I'm sure to tell him his mother doesn't wear panties and to pull it over so he can open up a can of Whip yeahhhh. (The last part is pure speculation, and if the court wishes to strike that from the record. I will have no objection)
So in closing. This video is to show you what NOT to do if you ever want to be nominated into the SUPER TRUCKER HALL OF FAME. Where I'm not only the President. I'm also a Client -
