I'll speed up to find an opportunity to merge, flash the guy behind me a peace sign then get right back over. I'm a cool driver in that regard.

I want to know why so many truckers sit in that lane. **** those guys when I'm hauling across the country. Then I'm the asshole who passes him on his right. Some asshole brighted me for that. And why attempt to pass another truck on an incline when you are going literally 3 miles faster. Grinds my gears.

Most commercial trucks have max of 65 -70. Mine was 67.

Now, if you get behind someone who is only going 60-65, you want to get around them. If my max is only 67, it's gonna take a bit to get around them. Believe me, they're not doing that on purpose.

2mph may not seem like much, but when you're driving 10-11 hrs a day it adds up.

I think most people understand commercial vehicles can have some limitations most of those drivers are not the problem. Now bBeing stuck with two 18 wheelers going side by side for 5 miles down I-70 can be pretty annoying but, that is not typically from intentionally rude driving but a lack of ability to accelerate.

I have been schooled. Thank you. I will be much more understanding now. I do flash my lights as I pass on the right.

Part of my joy in driving cross country is the 'language' of the road.

Signaling like that is appreciated. At least it would be on my end if I were still driving.

10 whole minutes? OMG! The horror!

Truckers don't relish this, either. 80,000lb vehicles don't accelerate like sports cars.

As someone who commutes 120 miles a day, there's nothing worse than stupid, inconsiderate drivers.

My least favorite is the Betty white's who drive 45 on the interstate. A close 2nd would be the people, esp big rigs, who drive to fast in wet or snowy conditions.
