    This happened 10min ago. I was .5mi away from the shipper. 4 lane divided highway, I got in the center of both left and right lanes, signaled and getting ready to make a right turn. I started to make the turn nice and smooth keeping an eye on the right trailer tail. Next thing you know, this black suv came out of nowhere and almost smashed into my trailer tail if I didnt whip the wheel and run over the curb.

    She then followed me to the shipper, got out of the car and yelled "wtf is your problem you almost hit my car". I rolled down my windows and i told her i got cameras in the truck, and she said "f*** you!!", and drove of.

    I got a 4 video cam setup, nose pov, driver side, passenger side and under the trailer. I wasnt going to sweat it. Georgia drivers, smh.

    Not really an insurance scam if she was aiming to rear end you.

    Sounds like just a case of inattentive driving, everyday variety.

    Did she pull the cell phone away from her face before she started yelling at you?
