    I like the states that have signs for semi's to stick to the right lane. I hate it when two semis wil bassically block off a two lane road and go the exact freaking speed limit.

    but say you are passing . . . you should accelerate, break the law of the speed limit, because someone wants to go faster than what your goin?

    I won't argue that but it's different when they are just driving the speed limit alongside another semi, which happens a lot in this state.

    This is different if you're doing the exact speed limit in the fast lane, that erks me to no end.
    I agree .. this inst the autobahn .. There isnt anything that says everyone has to yield to the guy because he wants to go super fast .. If you are in heavy traffic like that not only is he endangering his life but the lives of others ..

    When there is more than two lanes, trucks should drive in the lane next to the slow lane.

    If you can get over yes. Impeding the flow of traffic is also against the law.

    Damn straight. 100%. If I want to go faster than the person in front of me on the e-way, I will ride him for about 30 seconds, then back off alittle bit. No reason to keep riding the cars ass, thats just an accident waiting to happen.

    Slower traffic to the right. The damn signs are everywhere in MI. For some reason people cant read and obey simple driving rules. If anything, merge into the right lane, let me get the ticket for passing you, and go on with your day. Just stay right when traffic is wanting to go faster than you.

    I will actually flash my lights well before getting behind the car.

    Be considerate, move over.

    if i was going like 60 and just barely passing i can see how somebody can get upset but c'mon.. i'm going 10 over the limit in a place where most people stick to the limit.
    Yes, you do. Slower traffic keep right. Who are you to police the roads & tell someone they can't do 80 b/c you don't want to?

    Guess what he saw, my barrel pointed right at him. Needless to say, he moved.
    With everyone having a cell phone now-a-days that's pretty ballsy...one 911 call and the CHP will own your ass.

    Maybe so, but I wasn't about to let him run me off the road and possible kill me.

    It was a large trunk and I had nowhere to go. Slamming on the brakes would probably have cause an accident.

    When people ride my ass on the main road i brake check the shit out of them. Most roads around me are 2 lanes and you cant pass or move. I usually do 5 10 over which a lot more than most people. But when someone really creeps up on me i hit the brakes and then proceed to go 20mph tops if they refuse to back off. I usually end it with a nice wave and smile hahah.

    i agree.. unfortunatly sometimes you have no other option than to do somthing like that... to many people these days don't care untill they have to deal with the after math...

    It is actually safer for larger trucks to be in the center lane, provided there is 3 lanes of traffic.

    Yep, that allows for passing traffic. And a lane to get on and off the freeway safety.

    Thats just dumb. Brake check? who still does that? My cousin did that in 8th grade when I didnt have my seat belt on. I hit my face on the dash. Brake checking on e-ways, or high ways. nah... I dont like it. Get over.
