    Yeah, he backed off and settled in right at the back of the guys trailer. All after he tried to speed up the right side. if you can't see what he did wrong you're not watching the same vid

    Nothing to say about the Xtra lease trailer at the beginning that did the risky pass next to this wide load? He maybe could have moved over to the fast lane momentarily to create more room in the pass.

    So it looks like my question was answered along with a few unasked questions which is always good too, sometimes.

    I think I'm most amazed at how proud of yourself you seem to be.

    Not every freeway splits off to the left you know. I still had 1.5 miles to get over as well so there was no need for alarm to be scared.

    He was actively braking pretty hard, as you can see so did I and I did back off and give him room. In fact I was using my truck to block and escort for him. However those two cars in front decided to take that space anyway.
