    Well talking about seeing it all I witness the first mega carrier truck race for a 5 mile stretch on 77 between nc state line and va state line. It was a race with Schneider, prime, and Werner. For 4 to 5 miles these trucks were side by side going approx. 35-40 mi on the upgrade. The upgrade is about 7 miles long right after ex1 in va. They had traffic back up and neither one was smart enough to allow one I pass the other. I have to say at least the Schneider driver was on the slow lane. The truckers on the cb had me cracking up.. Common sense these days in driving can go a long way

    I normally advocate the slower truck backing out of it when a slightly faster truck tries to pass but not pulling a grade like Fancy Gap.. The 3rd lane is restricted but I will hit it running empty just to get away from the stupidity.
