    Darn good clip! I'll bet you were nervous, Wise! It's also nice to see the media talking to the truckers about this, instead of just the general public. Even in my car, I moved over or slowed down when anyone is pulled over on the side, no matter what state I'm in.

    This is another reason I oppose split speed limits or trucks governed under the speed limit . With 4 wheelers running faster than trucks trucks will find it difficult or impossible to move to the left or after they do they will be passed on the right .

    There are some people in this state that WILL NOT pull over even for an ambulance.
