    I like to give those road warriors plenty of room to blaze on down the road. No use trying to prove anything.

    Just like you were, and just like you should have in that video where you got butt hurt because a Prime truck passed you.

    I don't care if people pass me, I do care if they affect my operation ie. they force me to deviate from my lane or force me to slow down for their princess antics.

    Both Prime and JCT tried to pass a truck (me) going the speed limit because the speed limit was too slow for them, compound that with lanes narrowing the stupid factor goes up by 10.

    First thing, was everyone speeding or can you not drive the speed limit? Secondly that didn't look that bad and being you were going so slow I can see why everybody tried to get past you. Do you work for Schneider, swift or JB Hunt?

    Report the driver for that? What a bunch of snitching wussies. I bet you don't wonder why truckers have a bad rep. "Tell on him" like a child.

    The speed limit is 60 when you are coming in from the outskirts of Amarillo TX the speed drops from 75 to 60 in town. I was going the speed limit and these guys were just not going to have it. CSA points and double fine work zone tickets just don't scare some people I guess. Hit a worker lose your license, or do 14 years in prison has very little effect on the modern steering wheel holder.

    Depends on how you use it.Done the right way and you can focus 100% on what is in front off you.You never need to look down at your dash.BUT i agree that you can create more danger if you are on cruise and do it the wrong way.
