Thank you for asking that question, Teddy Bear! I've wondered that as well. More often than not, when a big truck passes me and moves back into my lane, I have to decelerate to put the required room between us. So... you're not alone in your observation.
-
Just curious but if one is so close that you can't see them in your mirrors how exactly are they a nuissance when you don't even know they are there? -
If you have to ask you aren't much of a driver .
-
You are describing an experience with a CDL mill wonder or possibly a Canadian . Did you notice what the carrier was ?
-
But at least I know the regulations of driving...........
-
I sure didn't notice, Rick. I remember it was a van. I'll have to start paying more attention to who the carriers are.
It's funny you mention Canadian; today while on the interstate I passed a truck and noticed it was from Canada. Another truck behind us passed this one and I was watching for the 2 truck lengths before I pulled back in front of the Canadian one. The truck behind me pulled back in front of him before I could even get back over. I couldn't see which carrier the truck doing the passing was.
-
Not that Rick needs any help but....
you have 2 years experience and Rick has 30! I'd gladly bet a dozen doughnuts Rick knows what he is doing and has more miles going backwards than you have going forwards! It's no wonder kids are so messed up these days. They dont listen to their elders! -
I assume you've learned from reading posts by me and RoadMedic then because not long ago ......
BigRigRick Thanks this. -
