I was an inner city street cop for 30 yrs. We had an industrial area and a freeway running through. I didn’t have regular contact truckers but every time there was never a problem. Several times I had to help with traffic control so they could turn around in town at a low bridge or maneuver a tight spot on a local street.

Main thing: be aware of the vehicles around you. Give big trucks as much space as you can. They need it. Don't try to beat them or race them. Definitely don't test their brakes. Backing off and letting them have room is easy. Never linger on either side. If you need to pass a truck, pass them. I have mad respect for what these guys can do because the most nerve racking thing I ever did was tow a camper, not even a big one. These guys have a huge trailer and their big truck to control. These guys are also on a stricter schedule then anyone else. I don't get how people can be so complacent around any vehicle. Something that can kill you so easily shouldn't be regarded with anything less than respect. I grew up with coal trucks running 8 feet from my front yard on a little two lane road with houses on both side. There was little room for error. I wasn't even allowed to stand outside my yard to wait for the school bus even in high school because the trucks running so close. I cannot ever understand someone trusting their life and safety to someone's reaction time or breaking ability. I cringe when people walk across the road with traffic coming believing that the cars will stop because pedestrians have the right of way. I choose life thanks.

So there was the obligation to report the driver through the system in place. I've not since heard anything back about the driver but having been reported of it this was another for the crossing to get nescerary upgrade so this sort of thing shouldn't be able to happen again. If it does then the driver gets the legal stuff against them.

For someone like me who lives in a large, congested, metro area, the openness of the road in this video is stunning. I can't understand how any drivers could initiate conflict with so much space offered. I guess when people take things for granted...

This driver is a true professional. No swearing or flipping of birds, cool and calm composure even as Admiral Deathwish plays a dangerous game that none of us drivers enjoy playing. Kudos. I cannot say I would have reacted the same... mostly because I've been cut off and brake checked and was not nearly as calm 😅 I guess those stupid cameras are useful after all, eh?

My Dad drove a truck after he retired from a management job at the transportation company he worked for, for about 37 years, and the stories he told about cars playing chicken with him and the break checks, like this guy, just for fun. I always try and give truckers all the room they need, but then again. i was a truck driver's daughter!

I remember during drivers ed the teacher and the driving coach always told us to not stay next to trucks. Now days I've watch cars drive up and then once the car reaches the rear of the trailer the driver decides to stop right at the point. They speed up if the truck speeds up and slow down if the truck slows down.

I was braked checked recently in Virginia on I 81. 4 wheeler was upset that I signaled and moved into the slow lane when she decided that she wanted to pass me in that lane. She went around, pulled in front with a strong brake and the middle finger. People think we do things just to be assess, but all I did was allow her to merge onto the interstate and attempt to get back over once I passed her. Some people have very weak egos.

The trucker was in the left lane because he was passing. He probably moved over to pass before the pickup caught up to him. Maybe the pickup guy was pissed that he had to slow down till the semi passed. Highly unlikely that the semi moved over in front of the pickup so soon that the pickup driver got startled by being cut off by the semi. We don't get to see what was happening behind the semi when he moved into the passing lane.

Theres more to the story i bet. The semi passed another semi. Im thinking maybe the semi cutoff the pickup. In some states the limit is 55mph and only allowed in right lanes. So hes probably passing and speeding, but cut off the pickup. Notice the other semi is probably cruising at 55mph, a safe soeed for combination vehicles.
