IMHO, something tells me you are one of the tailgaters when a 4 wheeler is going to slow in your opinion. What you and everyone else does on the highway is a great concern to me and my driving down the road.
If I have to pay more attention to the idiot (whether it be 4 wheeler or trucker) that is trying to park in the trunk of the car inches away in front of him, I also have to be watching the surrounding traffic closer, to see how they are reacting to the situation, and then I have to adjust my actions to theirs, the whole situation just snowballs, until finally, the multi car, exceptional injury count, accident happens.
I have done my fair share of cleanup from idiots who think they have the right of way, or think they need to be in front, I worked medic, fire, and mortuary...all three jobs dealt with morons on the highway. To many idiots out there! Now the "fungame" is to slow until another truck starts to pass, then speed up causing a log jam of cars and trucks behind the truck attempting to pass. Games on the highway by the "bored" trucker...BS...take your games and gotta be first attitudes and go to Circus Circus and whack a mole, or better yet...just park that thing your driving cause you really don't deserve that CDL in your pocket, not if you can't respect the laws, the rules, and the other drivers..no matter a chisled veteran of 20+ years or the newbie out on his first solo run. Respect others or don't expect any respect from me!![]()

It is drivers like you that give safe, responsible drivers a bad name, I will stop with a bear behind me so he can arrest you for road rage.simplyred1962, sewerman, PappyGT13 and 4 others Thank this. -

Someday maybe someone acting like a jerk and intimidating people will affect you or yours. I would like to see drivers act more professional so the public will have a better opinion of us and maybe give us a little consideration once in awhile and some respect. Lol if I was to see you laying on your air horn and flashing your lights 20 times a minute I would make it a point to call your company if and when I had the chance. Honestly who wants that kind of immaturity and impatience out on the road? Not all call-in's get tossed aside.

But as you stated, you just mind what YOU are doing, basically saying TO HELL WITH EVERYONE ELSE! Well sir, that highway is there for EVERYONE to use, not just you, not just by your "reckoning" of the rules, it was built for everyone. Now I just wonder how many accidents you have CAUSED, maybe never been involved in, or never caught to be at fault, but how many you have CAUSED due to your "style" of driving.
GO TAKE YOUR AGGRESSION AND ANGER OUT TO THE TRACK, LEAVE THE HIGHWAYS TO SAFE DRIVERS!

Then I guess instead of calling your boss we'll all just have to call 911 and you'll have the joy of being ticketed.
You don't own the highway, it belongs to trucks and 4 wheelers alike. Perhaps instead of venting your rage behind the wheel you might think of seeking professional help. Like a shrink. Just a helpful suggestion.steelerfan67 and otherhalftw Thank this. -
you really think that anybody and i mean anybody wants to cause a accident, i don't think so unless they are really really stupid which i am not. See that's the whole point they should be in the right lane like you just said. I know it's there for everybody so all i'm saying is if your going to go slow please move to the right lane so people who go faster can pass you. But i have never yet been in no type of accident and so far have no caused any all i have it speeding tickets and now that many lol. -
