    I just aimed my head at the GPS for my audience, my eyes have this ability to turn inside the sockets so I can aim my head this way and be looking that way..... wow it's not like I have a neckbrace on and can only see straight ahead geez.

    this is the difference of knowing what's right vs being mature enough to do what's right. most of us know what's right and wrong in the realm of public roadways, very few of us make an honest effort to keep everyone safe, even those not doing what's right.

    in other words - scottie, grow up.

    I see your point. Next time I will just merge over sooner and let FexWrex be true to their name.

    you don't see my point and probably never will. keep doing what you're doing so we can see video of good contact between trucks.

    No, just to the part where the 900 passes in the divided highway.

    It is illegal to exceed the speed limit to pass someone already going the speed limit. I can't believe no one caught this as I repeated it many times in the video and showed my speed to prove I wasn't messing around with this guy as so many of you have accused me of doing to "manufacture " close calls.

    Maybe you just don't see a problem with exceeding the speed limit the way I do. It didn't concern you that this guy acted like a princess wanting to be in front so bad? He risked his own life and mine and the RV driver's life to jump out and needed 500 feet on a 2 lane to get in front if we didn't slow down for his princess butt. The video is already long enough but I have him getting off at the rest area just north of there in Kansas not too long after passing us which I didn't include in the show. Why all the rush rush hurry hurry to get in front front front just to get off the road a few miles up the road? I don't get it. .

    I agree, you should do the speed limit. I dont agree with your driving. You are not the law.
    While you didnt do anything wrong legally, you could have let him pass 20 minutes ago and been done with it. But instead, you made a video for likes on how you are the superior driver and you can show the super truckers who the boss is.

    In my opinion, you took an unsafe situation and made it even more unsafe. Your an ####### scotty, you think your doing right. By law, sometimes you are, most of the time you are the guy nobody wants to be behind.

    You and your silly driving are going to cause a wreck one day. All because you have to be right.

    News flash scotty, most of us break the law at one time or another. You spent time in that video ####ingwith your pen and gps.

    Someone is gonna pay dearly, and you are still going to say "Look how I drive so superior to everyone else."

    lol, admit it Scottie, you were enjoying the fact that you were able to hold this guy back. You sounded like a kid in a candy store after getting by him after he got caught at the traffic light.

    Just remember, when really bad things happen the results are more important than where the blame falls.
