Prime slowed down from 62? Seems a bit fast for Prime.

Prime truck for forfeiting the right of way and slowing down making it even more difficult for the merging truck to merge.
People slow down too often and become unpredictable elements.
Just like that Joker on the bike that's about to pass. Yeah, just slow down and hang out next to a bad situation, great idea.Bakerman, Dave_in_AZ, HaulinCars and 1 other person Thank this. -
I face this every day-- I back off a little so they can get on, but the they dilly dally and don't make an effort to get up to speed and merge until the last minute and then cut me off. Mostly it seems like they are not paying attention.
If I can, I stay in the middle lane to avoid all this.joesmoothdog, Friday, austinmike and 3 others Thank this. -
Both are at fault. Rather than either driver being defensive or courteous, both took the F you stance. Revoke both CDL's for stupidity.

Hey... it's the guy who got his tarps stolen. I can tell by the crappy driver's side camera.

The camera truck had the right of way and should not have slowed down. The other needs to learn how to merge.Big Don, daf105paccar, noluck and 4 others Thank this. -
