    Or the videos of him impeding traffic/blatantly ignoring "slower traffic keep right" laws.

    Ok...so the center lane is the path of least resistance for Scottie. It’s not the path of least resistance for everyone that has to get around scottie. People talking on their phones will result in driver facing cameras, so that must mean slower traffic that doesn’t keep to the right results in lane restrictions for trucks.

    When I was driving on the mainland if I had to move over and pass a slower truck that was in the center lane I’d get up just past their hood and toss some loose change out the window. They usually moved to the right lane after some nickels bounced off their windshield.
     
    Slowpoke KW and DSK333 Thank this.

    They haven't said a word to me about my channel and likely won't. Even if they did terminate my contract I will still continue doing what I do, just no one would know who I drive for lol so therefore no one would know who to send a snitch email on me-- ironic you guys call me a snitch and tell me to mind my own business but cannot practice what you preach......

    It's all in the name of safety. If you TRULY cared so much about said safety you would understand this concept. Furthermore, if really did care so much about the industry, our reputations and safety in general then you would be the change you seek by following the laws instead of breaking them.

    My Grandmother and my toddler niece and cousins were rear ended by a big truck on 70 years ago. The truck that hit her was passing was passing a very slow moving truck on the right from the center lane. While he was at fault for passing on the right, the center truck was just as responsible as he was the cause of the effect. FYI, both Carriers were sued by numerous lawyers for this incident because it involved other four wheelers as well.

    The government will put driver facing cameras in the trucks and all trucks will be governed to the same speed despite my best efforts to save truckers' freedoms out here on the road.
